 The Last Piece by Imogen Clark

Monopoly Book Challenge - Electric Company - a "light and fluffy" book

New Author

While this wasn't a bad read, it was a book I was unlikely to choose myself. It was part of our OUBC monthly subscription.

The story was fairly predictable and I didn't particularly like any of the characters. BUT, that's just me. This is a light, chick-lit story about a rather complex subject. There's some romance, sisterhood, and scant, but beautiful descriptions of Greece.


Summary from Goodreads: A sudden departure. A story decades in the making.

The chaotic but happy equilibrium of the Nightingale family is thrown into disarray when Cecily—whose children can’t remember her ever being remotely spontaneous—disappears to a Greek island with no warning or explanation.

Her reasons for doing something so out of character are a total mystery to her three daughters, high-powered executive Felicity, unfulfilled GP Julia and organised mother-of-five Lily. What connection could she possibly have with Kefalonia?

But Cecily has gone to continue a story she thought ended decades ago—one that could have a huge impact on her family. And when she returns, she’ll have to tell them the truth.

Will Cecily be able to hold her family together once she reveals her big secret? And might she discover that she’s not the only one with a story to tell
