Plot twist after plot twist after plot twist. Whenever I thought I figured it out, I was proven wrong. Slow enough pace that I didn't feel the need to finish it in one sitting, but quick enough that it kept me interested

mysterious tense

4.25

This was a really good mystery/thriller! The information provided below can all be found in the book description, so I will not be hiding it as a spoiler.

The FMC’s (Emma) parents were murdered when she was a teen, and she was the prime suspect. She didn’t do it, and is worried one of her sisters did but doesn’t want to know. They all lie to protect each other. 

Years later, the sisters are estranged. Emma is married with a baby on the way, when her husband loses his job and the house they were planning to buy, along with their savings. As a last resort, they move back into Emma’s childhood home where her parents were murdered. The sisters return, worried what Emma may find. Secrets are exposed as Emma tries to figure out what really happened to her parents. 

I really enjoyed the mystery and intrigue of this book. It was well written and had me staying up late to get to the conclusion. I liked the multiple POVs, and that it alternated between past and present to give the full story.

This is insanely readable and the sisters keeping secrets no matter what was really interesting to read about. I devoured this book and even though there wasn't anything new and unique about this thriller, I think it was done so well and I really enjoyed both the past and the present storyline, it kept me at the edge of my seat the entire time. Kate Alice Marshall is becoming one of my new favorite thriller authors and I'm so here for it!

I'd been craving a psychological thriller, and this one was good.  Three sisters with secrets - are they keeping secrets to protect each other or to protect someone else?  I enjoyed the twists and turns of the story and the satisfying ending.
