Synopsis

From New Zealand author Donna Malane, My Brother’s Keeper is a dark and twisting mystery that leaves no stone—or page—unturned.Diane Rowe is a missing persons expert. Ex-con Karen needs Diane’s help to track down her fourteen-year-old daughter, Sunny, whom she’s lost contact with while she’s been in prison.To Diane, this appears at first glance to be a simple case of a mother wanting to reunite with a beloved daughter. Tracking the girl down is easy. However, convincing her to meet her mother is no easy task. And at the back of Diane’s mind is a nagging thought—that guilt and innocence aren’t straightforward and nothing is quite what it seems. Does Karen really want to fix the wrongs of the past or is there something darker at play here that will take all of Diane’s skills to uncover?

Goodreads review by Aristotle on October 12, 2018

Raindrops on Roses and Whiskers on Kittens this is not. A well written but dark read. What makes a good read is looking forward to reconnecting with the main character and wanting to reach into the book to give the victims a hug and tell them it will be alright. That was this book. I hope to see Diane......more

Ms. Malane is a new author to me. It took me a bit to get going with the book, because there were so many phrases from New Zealand. But once I caught on, the story really picked up. Lot's of excellent twists and turns. I'll definitely be reading more of her books.......more
