Sally Coles's Reviews > Home for Winter

Serena and Will have just moved into the vicarage in a Sussex village and are hoping to settle well into the Parish and make new friends and move on with their lives - but soon upon arrival they hear stories about the nursery being haunted and that no-one living there has been able to have children. Serena is very upset and we soon realise that something has happened and moving parish is supposed to be a new beginning for both of them.

Serena has an identical twin sister Luna who she is estranged from and various chapters go back in time to parts of their lives to fill in the back story. As children Luna was always the more gregarious twin and always wanted her own way and anything that Serena had! When Luna goes too far they fall out and have nothing to do with each other for years but after a family tragedy they become reconciled and it seems that her old jealous ways have disappeared for good....but have they or will she do something far worse than anything she has done before!

A great story - I loved the friendships that they made, taking in people in need even though they had their own problems and the village characters were great in true village style and the story worked well with the flashbacks filling in the history - definitely worth reading
