(4) YA After inheriting her grandmother's estate and moving from London to a seaside town with her mom and brother, sixteen-year-old Billie untangles a web of generations-spanning family secrets. In alternating points of view throughout time, pieces of the puzzle are unearthed gracefully. However, the instant attraction between Billie and her love interest is clunky and the resolution of their relationship, unsatisfying.
