Well written murder mystery from the view of the women involved.
Some people are darker characters than you could imagine & the question remains... could you kill somone ?
Two different killers... one sadistic & ticks all the depraved boxes the other is unexpected but no less calculated.

3⭐️ Another predictable, but still enjoyable thriller.
I listened to this as an audiobook, and I liked the different voices for the multiple POV’s, but some parts fell a bit flat and didn’t feel very expressive.
The storyline has good premise and had a good pace at the beginning, but fell off towards the middle and was just dragging by the end. For what actually happened, I’m confused as to how it ended up being 10 hours long. I didn’t really like any of the characters, and aside from the ending, there wasn’t any big twists or shocking revelations throughout. I wasn’t expecting the ending and didn’t guess it, so that makes up for some of the previous slowness.
I’ve got a serial killers daughter and a serial killers sister on my audiobook tbr, so we’ll see how I get on with those!

I would call this novel mediocre. It's not a difficult read, goes pretty quick, but the story was... honestly pretty lame. The title is literally the story.
Initially Beth glosses over the underbelly of her marriage and it seems like they're the perfect little family. (But of course, the TITLE OF THE BOOK indicates differently.) Then Beth mentions her husband likes control. Then it turns out he's killed 2 women and confessed to her. Then a third victim is found. I think it's supposed to be a surprise that he's actually a serial killer, but the LITERAL TITLE ruins that. I guess it supposed to be a "surprise twist" that Beth turns out not to be a great person but I mean... She knew her husband killed two women and didn't say anything, so again... We already knew that? Pretty weak plot. Pretty weak story. It's been done before by others, and waaaay better.
