Alison seems to have the perfect little family and a career on the rise as a defense attorney. Unfortunately she also has a drinking problem, is sleeping with a shitty coworker, and is being anonymously harassed by someone who seems determined to expose her secrets and ruin her life. This book consisted almost entirely of tropes I'm super over and also just didn't have a lot going for it in terms of storytelling. Also it was so dark as to be actively upsetting. Clearly many others have seen something in this one but I really don't get all the praise.
