Though I haven't read too many thrillers/suspense novels in 2021, this is definitely near the top of the list of those I have read! This is a very creepy, suspenseful story that Jewell crafted expertly, doling out tidbits of information here and there. Though a bit predictable, its ability to entertain me throughout made up for that. This is a book in which alternating points-of-view and timelines, as well as short chapters, works especially well. I really enjoyed seeing how all the pieces of this story came together in the end.

This served its precise purpose of being the thriller distraction I needed, hence my rating. Helen Duff was an excellent narrator. It was exactly what I needed.
Pretty shit way to use your main Irish character - legit no reason for her to be Irish, other than being a British author with implicit biases.
