The way I loved every second of this book. No spoilers but I actually really loved the ending. Seems to be a heated topic in the reviews but it really worked for me. This is the 3rd book I’ve read by TDJ and she is officially a read without question author of mine. Do be mindful of trigger warnings though.

This book consumed me. My mouth was open the whole of the last chapter. Ms Tiffany D Jackson has done it again. The book had me in a chokehold.

This is the perfect kind of book to listen to! So intense and keeps you guessing right until the end. And performed by the wonderful Bahni Turpin

This book was so good!

the plot twist was insane because I was fully convinced Mary was innocent!

I absolutely love Tiffany D. Jackson’s work!

there’s a scene in which one of the people in the house finds a dead cat. This scene is extremely graphic and very upsetting. The aftermath is also graphic
