I found this book difficult to get into and found myself wondering if this was because it was a translation as the story didn't flow.I didn't warm to either of the main characters, Frank and Heleen, at first, they both seemed dull and somewhat smug.The book did improve after the disappearance  of Frank. The pace of the story picked up and Heleen grew as a character.There were several twists that surprised me and kept me reading plus secondary characters that seemed more fleshed out than the main protagonists - they certainly had more life about them.This was a pleasant, undemanding read and I will try more of Suzanne Vermeer's books.ARC via Netgalley and publisher in return for an honest review.
