Initially engrossing but fades in the end
Full review
A good story unfolds. Occasional time skips are a little disconcerting as you struggle to catch up with what has happened in the gap. Once Claudy has died it is clear Lorna regrets her involvement as she ever so gently goes off the rails. I found the ending with her hiding out in a cabin in the woods talking to herself slightly unconvincing
