The Last Anniversary, is an early novel by one of my favorite writers, Liane Moriarty. Moriarty always weaves a good tale full of interesting characters and keeps the reader in a bit of suspense waiting to find out what happens.

Set on tiny Scribbly Gum Island, just off the coast of Sydney, Sophie inherits a house and becomes part of a family mystery about parents who left their newborn baby and disappeared without a trace. As Sophie’s biological clock is ticking and she desperately hopes to start a family of her own, the truth about the Scribbly Gum baby might just be coming to light.

An entertaining read, although not nearly as good as her later books.
