Book Review: The Summer House by Keri Beevis

Mead House was once our childhood home.

Despite my fears, I always knew we would have to return to face the demons of our past.

Back to the place where it happened, to where, as carefree teenagers, we lost our elder sister in the most brutal of circumstances.

As executors of our grandmother’s will, my twin brother, Ollie, and I needed to empty the house for resale.

What I didn’t expect to discover was my sister’s secret journal that contained her most private thoughts and shocking dark secrets.

Now I am questioning everything that I saw that night. Did I get it wrong, who I saw?

Did my evidence send an innocent man, my then boyfriend’s brother, to jail for the last 17 years?

I know I have no choice. If I want to find answers, I will have to go back to that fateful night my sister died. When she made her last visit to the summer house.

Why Should You Read This?

“The Summer House” is described as a psychological thriller, so I expected an intense and dark novel. Conversely, I felt the book was a light read. The author gradually introduces all the characters and delves into their backstories one at a time. I loved how the author paced the introduction of multiple characters.

The ending, for me, was predictable as the author uses the process of elimination in her climax. While I could guess the killer, the motive was a different ball game. The grounds of the murder is where the author packs a punch. The book is well-paced with moments of rapid page-turning.

There were multiple plotlines to explore in the book and the author didn’t leave any loose ends. If you love psychological thrillers that are not too intense, this one is for you!!
