Year 10, Book 24

24. The Ice Twins by S.K. Tremayne

It’s been one year since Sarah and Angus lost one of their twin daughters to a freak accident. They’re still trying to pick up the pieces of the shattered life and decide to move out to a remote Scottish island left to them by Angus’ grandmother to help rebuild their family. The only problem is that now their surviving daughter Kirstie tells them that she’s not actually Kirstie, she’s really Lydia the daughter they thought had died. The story is told in the alternating perspectives of Sarah and Angus who both seem to have secrets and reasons to distrust each other. Meanwhile their daughter is becoming more and more disturbed.

I liked the premise of this book more than I liked the book itself. I just didn’t really care for where the story went. It had some horror aspects to it, but it wasn’t really a horror story. I wish it had been more realistic. I give it a 5 out of 10.
