After the mysterious death of her sister Rosie, Tess moves into her flat in London to feel close to her. She rents out Rosie's empty bedroom for b n b guests and feels the urge to rummage through her guests belongings when they're out. As her newest lodger Arran rents the room, she finds his diary and starts reading it. As she sees his entries about him falling in love with a woman, she can't help but notice the similarities between this unnamed woman and herself. She starts following him through the streets of London to find out more.
I couldn't really route for the protagonist, I couldn't get over her creepiness in indulging in someone's diary.

She lost credibility and I kept thinking she was involved in her sister's murder. (She wasn't). The ending did have a surprising twist I did not see coming, but I found that the killer lacked a real motif. It just didn't make much sense to me.
