Vera returns home after being away for six years because her sister is in the hospital. When her sister dies after she seems to be recovering in the same hospital with the same nurse where their mother had died, Vera begins to wonder about the coincidence.What makes this story even more chilling is reading the author's notes and recognizing the similarities between the loss of her own mother and sister in real life and the fictionalized events of the book. Perhaps this is the reason for the believable hospital scenes and Vera's reaction.Every time in the book when you feel everything is finally okay, something else happens and makes you want to keep reading. Luckily the book is not too long and can be read in one sitting if you're so inclined. I took a little longer, but I like to analyze the writing as I go. This one is well written.
