The Insect House by Shirley Day
Long-listed for the Bath Novel Award: An estranged brother and sister reunite, stirring up dark truths about their childhood, in this brooding mystery.

I enjoyed this suspenseful story. This is a new author for me which I enjoyed her writing skills that made the story pop. This is a well written story about family and secrets. A story where a brother and sister meet after years of being apart and what happens after you don't want to miss. I enjoyed how the author used details to bring life to the story. Her characters are not only connectable but also strong and supportive to each other. This is a fast paced, engaging story that is hard to put down. I enjoyed the growth of the plot and characters which made the story easy to read. I really enjoyed this story and what the characters brought to the story. I highly recommend this book.
