It has been 25 years since a local man raged through the small town of Hartstead, shooting eleven people dead at random. Cassie Coleman was only four when Travis Green killed his last victim: the father she never knew. Cassie has spent her life trying to escape her past, but she is forced to return home when her mother starts forgetting even the basic details of hers. Then a strange discovery amongst her mother's possessions calls into question everything Cassie thought she knew about the eleven murders all those years ago. And on her quest for answers, Cassie realises the past is a complicated thing. Some can't remember, some don't want to. And some will do anything to ensure it stays buried . . .

I really enjoyed this book, my first by Laura Marshall. It moves along at a fast pace and keeps the momentum going. I particularly liked the way snippets about the shootings kept coming to light as Cassie found out more, and how they helped other pieces of information to suddenly slot into place or gain clarity.
Cassie is a new mother and I remember those early days with a baby who wouldn't settle (although I don't remember quite as many trips to the pub!). It made it very relatable and I was really pleased to see Cassie's personal development and confidence grow throughout the story, and her relationships with her mother, her baby and her newfound friends strengthen.
Flashback scenes to the day of the shooting helped to show things from the victims' perspective and I started to put 2 and 2 together and by the end I was beginning to get a real sense of what had motivated Travis's rampage. A well-written and well-plotted story, with characters I wasn't sure if Cassie could trust, I thought this was an excellent domestic thriller and I hope to read more of Marshall's books in the future.
