The Dark Rose by Erin Kelly
Louisa, nearing forty, works in
Warwickshire, restoring the gardens of Kelstice Lodge. She's still
haunted, however, by an event twenty years ago involving her
then-boyfriend, Adam. When Paul, not yet 20, comes to work at
Kelstice Lodge, Louisa is stunned by his resemblance to Adam. Paul,
it turns out, is hiding from his own past. Paul has given evidence
against his best friend, Daniel, implicating him in a murder. He
worries what would happen if Daniel or Daniel's father, Carl, find
out where he's living. Combining the present story of Louisa and
Paul along with slowly revealing their pasts, Kelly has written a
novel of psychological suspense that's hard to put down once you're
into it. For readers who enjoy Ruth Rendell and Tana French.
