A Sea of Unspoken Things by Adrienne Young
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
When her twin brother is accidentally shot dead, James goes back to her hometown to pack up his belongings. But her true motive is really to understand what happened. The uneasy feeling will not leave her alone and she’s confident that things aren’t what they seem.
Add to that a small town where the love of her life, her brother’s on again and off again girlfriend and all her childhood friends still live. A small town full of gossip. A small town she’d managed to escape. A small town where there are no secrets. A small town where she and her brother and her ex were keeping a secret they never told anyone.
And James isn’t sure her brother is as innocent as he seems. But she knows him and there’s no way he could have hurt anyone. Or could he?
Young’s writing is haunting, claustrophobic and atmospheric. Her characters are memorable and three-dimensional. I love reading her stories.
