The First Wife's Secret by Claire Amarti
Dinah Spencer is back in her childhood home for one stressful weekend. It’s the twenty-five-year anniversary of her father’s marriage to her stepmother. Those twenty-five years haven’t all been happy for middle child Dinah, but she’s getting ready to put the past behind her, keeping the bonds of family strong for her own daughter Josie’s sake - until her beloved dad collapses in the middle of his anniversary speech.

Youngest daughter Lottie Spencer struggles to keep her family afloat in the wake of her father’s cardiac arrest. There’s her mother to worry about: the ever-capable Mara, who suddenly seems shockingly fragile. There are Lottie's two older step-sisters, whose own private lives seem to be fraying at the seams. There's her niece, Josie, to protect. And then there’s that mysterious box in the attic, belonging to her father's first wife Bonnie. A box whose explosive secrets Lottie is only just starting to unravel...
