Meanwhile, her teenage daughter Iris begins a relationship with Sally's dangerous ex Ricky, threatening to expose long-buried family secrets. Sally must race to uncover the truth about her past before it tears her family apart and consumes her sanity.

Sally, our main character finds herself in quite a mess dealing with the sudden death of her husband and dealing with repressed childhood memories. Some of the memories may have been triggered by her daughter's reconnection with her biological father, against Sally's wishes. The storyline goes back and forth quickly with several well-written sessions between Sally and Ruth, her therapist. "Forgotten Dark" is a surprising psychological thriller that I would like to write more about, but I don't want to write a spoiler to the book because it's worth the read. I will say that the ending is quite a shock. I never saw it coming! Not saying that I agree with the therapist, but this is fiction, and an author has free license. Louise Worthington has written a well composed, entertaining book that will most definitely astonish you in the end with an unsuspected conclusion. I definitely recommend "Forgotten Dark."
