This was an interesting book and not what I expected going into it, but I still really enjoyed it. It takes a lot of build up but you always have this really tense, unsettling feeling about Mr and Mrs Evans. 
Graziella is the only likeable character and I’m glad she got a sort of happy end. She deserved better.
