The Fault by Kitty Sewell-psychological thriller

Sebastian is a structural engineer. He is renowned for designing the near impossible.

His girlfriend Eva is a diver and they have recently moved in together. Sebastian wanted

them to get married as they were in Dubai and cohabitation is illegal. Eva doesn’t want

to and we know there is a reason but not what- a past relationship is hinted at but

nothing more. Eva is troubled by something or someone in her past and wants to tell

Sebastian but hasn't yet found the right moment. Sebastian’s sister Mimi lives with them

and they are now in Gibraltar, Sebastian touting for a new project. Mimi has developed

a relationship with  the man who has the flat below them. As he is in his forties and

she is not quite eighteen, Sebastian is very wary and protective whereas Eva sees it for

what it is- a blossoming friendship. Sebastian himself has his secrets. Mimi couldn’t go

to Japan with him as for some reason he wasn’t allowed to be her guardian, again

something in the past is hinted at. It took me a little while to get into this book but

once I did I was hooked. There are wonderful descriptions of Gibraltar and of the

rock and tunnels and their history, something I knew little about. Each chapter is

by one of the three main characters- Eva, Sebastian or Mimi giving their aspect

of the story. Oh boy! One to throw you around and leave you with your head

spinning.
