Yet, on the whole, the sequel felt completely unnecessary. Admittedly, it was fun to see what happened to all the characters from The Family Remains. Meanwhile, Henry’s obsession with Finn continues as he tries to track Finn down in Chicago.Ĭonfused? You need to read the first book (and probably refresh your memory with a summary) because Jewell jumps right in where the last book left off. With the police asking questions, Lucy is terrified they will find out that she killed her ex-husband, while at the same time we learn the backstory of Michael and his second wife. In a sequel to the dark thriller, The Family Upstairs, the police have discovered Birdie’s remains and start to investigate what really happened in the house. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own. ![]() ![]() ![]() I received a complimentary copy of this book from Atria Books through Netgalley. ![]()
