Jules and Kian are beside themselves with worry, where could Daisy be? As they later found out, she has been murdered. Prime suspect, Amelia, along with Dean who has always been a life time friend of Daisy, so the family finds that his involvement beyond belief. At the trial Amelia is sentenced to five years in jail but Dean gets a lot longer.
Jules gets a phone call after several years to let her know that Amelia is getting released. Jules is beside herself, how can they let her out so early? Now what, THE GIRL WHO CAME BACK, is trying to get a hold of Jules.
I have always enjoyed books by Susan Lewis. I really like her writing style. There is a combination of love and mystery. Susan Lewis also shows a side of people with mental problems. Something in this day and age, people seem to overlook. It also, shows how family members either don't want to really see what is going on or just tend to ignore it. THE GIRL WHO CAME BACK really is an interesting read. Buy it, read it, love it.
