I had this “who done it” figured out early but it was still a fun ride getting to the end. It was a quick read for me.

This was a thoroughly engaging thriller that touched on ridiculous a few times but not so much that it made me roll my eyes... too much. Instead, I had a great time reading it. I very much liked the story told from different perspectives.

I had NO idea where this book was headed so I enjoyed the plot twist thoroughly. I had a few guesses but they were so far off. 

To me this had perfect elements of a thriller! 
-Fast Paced
-Motive
-Unreliable Characters/Relationships
-Multiple POVs
-Intertwined Lives
-Connected Pasts/Presents
-Jealousy/Rage/Revenge 
-Guilt/Shame

This was my first by Jennifer Hillier and it won’t be my last!
