Book Information
One hot summer, Dee disappeared. Now she’s back…but she’s not the girl you knew.
Sera and Dee were the best of friends.
Until the day that Dee and her brother Leo vanished from Sera’s life, during a long hot summer thirty years ago.
Now Sera is an adult, with her own child, five-year-old Katie, and has returned to her childhood home after her husband’s death.
While she grieves, the past haunts Sera at every turn … and then Dee and Leo return to their small Hampshire village, along with Dee’s young daughter.
But Dee is silent and haunted by her demons; no longer the fun-loving girl that Sera loved. And when Sera uncovers the shocking secret that Dee is hiding, it’s clear that the girl she knew is long gone – and that the adult she has grown into might put all of them in danger…

My Review
3.5☆ An Enjoyable Mystery.
The Darkest Summer is a twisty Mystery.
Sera decides to return to her hometown with her Daughter Katie after her husband passes away. Moving back in with her Mum Mimi to help get over her loss.
Going back home brings back memories of her best friend Dee and her brother Leo after they mysteriously disappeared.
But Sera is soon to discover they are both back and have no answer to there whereabouts.
Dee is no longer the girl she once was and she has changed.
Can Sera uncover the truth or is the truth too painful to reveal?
Just what is Dee hiding? How can someone just disappear without a trace than turn up out of the blue!
My reasoning for a 3.5☆ was because I found it difficult to connect with the writing style.
For me it didn't flow so well and at times felt disjointed.
I did however enjoy the mystery and intrigue aspect and how the story gradually built up pace as i uncovered the twisting secrets and mystery.
I didn't particularly like the characters and found them to be perfectly flawed and complex each with their own dark secrets which was relevant and fitting to the plot, but I think that was the point they wasn't meant to be particularly likeable.
Overall The Darkest Summer was an enjoyable Mystery, with a few cleverly plotted twists, plenty of secrets and dash of suspense.
A great read if you are looking to uncover a slower paced read with plenty of Mystery!
