Three Days by the Sea by Helen E Mundler
In the Ellis family, no-one talks about Susie but no-one can forget her - until Gina and Robert receive invitations to a family reunion by the sea in Cornwall. As the three days unfold, the stories and secrets of each character are mapped against England's changing society. The truth of Susie's disappearance over twenty years ago is gradually revealed. Three Days by the Sea is a subtle, funny and moving story of hope and renewal. With both dry, sharp humour and warmth, Helen E. Mundler unpicks the trials and tensions of family life.
