My Review
The story started when Samantha or “Sam” discover that the hedgehog conservation centre account is emptied. It linked to Phoebe who was ‘related’ to the Grimes family though Sam has no idea but found out after the incident. So, naturally, Sam blamed herself for being so naive to trust a part timer with the account. Unbeknownst to her, she is about to discover a heartbreaking truth about Phoebe and she is as much as a victim as she is from the Grimes vendetta.
This is the 4th book from Hedgehogs Hollow series and is my 1st book. It is a story about family, forgiveness, sacrifices, pain and bravery in a close knit community. It touches on domestic violence, child abuse and PTSD. I admired Sam’s attitude to forgive and embrace Phoebe despite the missing monies. I love Phobe’s sense of responsibility which given if it is me, I would never do what she does in the story. Am thoroughly enjoyed the story!
