About the Book
Their parents thought they were hiding...
One beautiful summer’s evening, thirteen-year-old twins Ivy and Erin Westmore snuggle down in a tent in their back garden, giggling and sharing secrets.
When their mother goes to wake the girls the next morning, their tent is empty.
The alarm is raised and Detective Natalie Ward is put onto the case. When the twins bodies are discovered on nearby marshland, covered with deep pink petals, an icy shiver travels down Natalie’s spine. Everything about the girls’ deaths reminds her of a horrifying case she worked on earlier in her career, which saw a killer of the worst kind places behind bars.
The next day, that feeling is heightened when she receives a chilling note saying ‘I’m back’. Is this killer a copycat or did Natalie put the wrong person in prison all those years ago? In a small town, where no stranger goes unnoticed, what is Natalie missing?
Consumed by the case, determined to prevent more deaths, Natalie misses the fact that it is her attention the killer wants. And to get it, he has his sights set firmly on her precious daughter Leigh...
Gripping, fast-paced and nail-bitingly tense, this book will keep you flying through the pages long into the night. Perfect for fans of Angela Marsons, Rachel Abbot and Karin Slaughter.

My Review
This is the fifth book in the Natalie Ward series. I have loved these books from The Birthday which is the first in the series.
Natalie Ward is easy to like and relate to and has her own struggles at home especially as she is the main earner in the family, juggling a difficult job with a difficult family life.
The book is fast paced and gripping and I didn’t want to put it down until I had finished and then I was left lost as there was no more, I had come to the end of the story.
The characters are interesting and likeable and work well together, we see home lives as well as work lives which gives an interesting look into who the characters are.
I do not want to say too much about this book as it really is best that you just read it.
It can be read as a stand alone however I recommend you read the whole series in order as the characters grow a little more in each book.
The Blossom Twins left me speechless, WOW is all I can say.
Read it you will not be disappointed.
