This wasn’t hard to finish, but I just didn’t like it. It became a page turner once I wanted to know the outcome with Marnie but this book didn’t work for me. It didn’t make me happy I read it. The synopsis has you wondering what is the secret between the two. It’s very clear early on what secret is the husband is keeping but it’s awhile before you find out what secret the mom is keeping. Bombshell ? No. Psychological thriller ? No. Depressing? To me, yes.
TRIGGER WARNING: Scared to fly? Don’t read this.

This was yet another domestic mystery/thriller but I thought it was pretty well crafted and entertaining. The action happens in the course of one single day and makes the reading pretty agile.
I have now read all of B. A. Paris’ books and will continue to do so in the future.

This book left me feeling stressed! The worry and stress about Marnie being on the plane was well done, however some of the characters I just couldn't connect with. Less of a thriller and more of a family drama.
This book was not a pleasant reading experience at all. I hate, hate giving one star ratings, but this book deserves it. The reason why? NOTHING HAPPENS. I spent the whole book waiting for a twist or a flip of some kind and was left sorely disappointed. Trust me when I say, as a seasoned book dragon, to give this one a miss.
I never give 2 stars. And I love B.A Paris. But this book just didn’t do it for me.
