Another book that lures you into a false sense of security before hitting you with the twists!  Great characters, great story.  Would recommend.

I feel this is appropriately hyped, I enjoyed it. I always appreciate McFadden’s approachable writing style, and this one had a few plot twists that kept it interesting. I thought the ending was clever but not over the top, which I appreciated.
