This is one of the books where you need more answers to what is going on. Abigail lost her memory but bits and pieces are coming back slowly. Looking forward to the next book for answers

As Abby is going through the house she discovers some very strange items. She finds wiring that shows that the house is completely under surveillance and that the special door that her dad had on his office so the kids would not come in is not something regular. Upon further investigation she finds that by pulling the wiring there are even more unusual and questionable things that have been added to the home.
Wait is this a fake wall and what could be behind it. A safe she never knew about, a gun, secrets in a desk. Who was her father and what was he up to. She is beginning to learn that many parents have secrets from their children.
On top of that she learns that her ex has a girlfriend and it is causing some problems with her twins in London. Thank goodness she has Cleo and Byron to help her figure stuff out. Oh and Bee is acting even stranger by the minute.
On top of all this Abby is starting to have flashes of the past but she can't tell what is real and what is off. One thing she is learning is that her father was not the man she thought he was.

In this third installment of The Forgotten Summer, Abigail searches for answers to what happened that long ago summer for for which she has virtually no memory. During her search, she is shocked to discover old photos....and a gun.

Now, someone has broken into her home and the gun is missing along with one of the photos. It seems the closer she gets to answers the more new questions arise. With the help of her friends Cleo and Byron, she is even more determined to search for the truth.

This series is getting better with each book and I can't wait to see what happens next.

I love this story as Abigail continues to have flashbacks to her accident and events as a teenager. The mysterious events draw me totally into the story and I can't wait to know what happens next. I'm anxious to read the next book in this series to continue to see the mystery unfold.

Abigail found a gun in her father's safe in his office. She wants to know why he had a gun and what he was doing in that office. Now she's questioning maybe her father wasn't as straight laced as she always thought. I received a free book and I am voluntarily leaving review.
