~*The Death and Life of Eleanor Parker*~
Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for letting me read this in advance for an honest review!
I did not know what to expect with this book but I ended up being very pleasantly surprised.
The Death and Life of Eleanor Parker opens up with Eleanor waking up by the river with no memory of how she got there and what happened to her. She manages to make it home but when she gets there and takes a good look at herself something is off. She is pale, almost grey, there are bruises on her chest andnear her neck and she can't seem to get warm. After trying to eat and not being able to she begins to notices that she also feels nothing and really can't seem to smell anything. The only answer that Ellie can come up with is that she was drowned in the river and she must be dead but not dead. Her "death" took lace almost a year to the day of the death of her brother's girlfriend Sarah who happened to be drowned in almost the exact spot that Ellie awoke.
WIth a great cast of characters, a small little English village where everyone knows everyone and a good mystery this book has everything I am looking for. Eleanore is a good character who is smart, resourceful and has a wicked sense of humour this is a must read. I just loved it!
