THE FAMILY UPSTAIRS, by Lisa Jewell










Mystery/Thriller -- 4 stars



Libby Jones knows she will receive an inheritance when she turns 25.  What she doesn't know is that it's a house--a mansion really--in Chelsea.  And she is about to find out is that this is a mansion with a strange history. ----- A book that begins with multiple characters all telling their own seemingly unrelated stories better find a way to connect them, and Lisa Jewell manages that with ease.  As their stories begin to merge, each revelation is part surprise, part explanation for facts already revealed.  A satisfying and entertaining family drama with a soft but welcome ending.
