This book touches on classism, perfectionism, and misogyny intertwining it all into a deceitful narrative that will have you wondering who is telling the truth. Who killed Heather Shelby and why?
If you enjoy fast paced mysteries with dual timelines you’ll enjoy this book. The dual timelines were my favorite part. The now vs the past and how it all interconnected by the end left me with a great appreciation for the editing and structure it took to make this novel. Ashley Winstead has found a fan in me. I’m excited to read her other works.

In the end, though I was not surprised by who the killer was, I found that I could understand Jessica, Coop, and the rest of the group. I enjoyed this book and will be reading from this author again.

I'm giving it a 4.5⭐️ because certain parts felt a bit predictable, yet the tense atmosphere and the author's writing style had me completely gripped. The main character was expertly crafted—relatable yet complex, adding a layer of depth to the story.
The book delves deep into our shadows and complexities, daring us to confront our darkness. It's a standout choice for thriller mysteries this year for me. Nonetheless, it's an enthralling read that will keep your thoughts engaged long after you've finished.
