🦚 Single mom Alice opens her home to a man she encounters at the beach, off the coast of Yorkshire. He is going through a fugu state not knowing his identify, name or how he got there. Near London, Lily, a young wife from the Ukraine panics when her new husband does not come home from work. After she learns about his fake pass ort from the local police, she begins to search for him and for answers as to why he suddenly abandoned her.

🦚 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 — answering questions along the way without spoiling the overall mystique and suspense of the story.

i’ve read almost all of lisa jewell’s books and she has a weird obsession w middle aged women who don’t consider themselves “traditional beauties” and the other women in the story who are.. it’s strange and in every one of them
