I got this after hearing it reviewed on Radio 2 last year sometime. It is Linda Newbery's first novel for adults although she is an established children's story writer. The story is mostly set in the present time and focused on Anna a young woman who when a teenager her elder sister, Rose, disappeared at a Quarter Past Two on a Wednesday Afternoon. The narrative then flips back and forth to times before Rose's disappearance and just afterwards as well as further back as part of the story involves her mother and her loss of her brother (Anna's uncle) when he was a teenager in a drowning accident. The book deals with loss, sibling rivalry, love, deception, etc. It is a complicated weaving of various components which I found intriguing. Not a rip roaring fast paced page turner, more a sitting back middle of the afternoon with a cup of tea and a bun type book. Maybe more geared to female readers than male but I still enjoyed it. In fact I did get quite...
