A Dark Devotion by Clare Francis

What the cover says:
Grace Dearden is beautiful, clever and admired. The last person to disappear into the lonely Norfolk marshes in the black depths of winter.
Seven days... and still no trace.
With police investigations stalled, old family friend Alex O'Neill returns to the haunting landscape of her childhood. And immediately begins to uncover disturbing new clues...
Each one drawing her closer to a family's tragic secret...


Not sure how I felt about this one. I do tend to prefer to like at least one of the characters in a book as I find it gives more of an interest in how the story will turn out. Unfortunately I didn't feel anything for any of the main protagonists except perhaps mild dislike for the more unpleasant. On the whole, not bad I suppose.

7/10
