๐ฆ This like most of Lisa Jewell's thrillers is bingeable, unputdownable and full of suspense. I particularly love this book because it has so much heart amidst the tense and thrilling context. The two FMCs are so different but also similar whereby they are both strong and resilient women. The multiple POVs were all easy-to-follow and flow together really well โ answering questions along the way without spoiling the overall mystique and suspense of the story.

๐ This is definitely more of a character driven story, so if you hate them all or donโt care, it could be a slog. I loved it because they mysteries are subtle, evenly paced, and never boring - at any given time I was doubtful about a person while also feeling sympathetic toward them and that was refined as the story progressed. For example, wondering if someone was a reluctant hero or fugitive on the run.
