Years later, Joanna moves into a new house. It seems perfect in every way, until she learns that Lily Murphy used to live here.

*Appearances*
For some reason I kept putting off starting this book. It was much better than I expected and a lot of the chapters ended on a slight cliffhanger which kept me hooked.
Joanna and Mark move into their new home and are just settling in with their children. Things change when Joanna finds out that the house they have bought has a past.
This past is about a little girl Lily Murphy who went missing seemingly without a trace. When Joanna searches for an image of Lily she wishes she never started.
We are treated to snippets of the past life and the house itself carried its own dark secrets. Joanna has secrets of her own that even her husband and family are unaware of.
Now, as she starts to ask questions she has trouble holding in her own secret. She speaks to the one person that she knows has some answers, this person is a secret that she aims to take to her grave.
But, tragedy strikes just as Joanna was getting some answers. But how long before her own past catches up with her?…
There is one final reveal at the end that I was not expecting…
