Look Closer by David Ellis
4.0

Look Closer was a twisty, page turning mystery/thriller that went off the rails, and I liked it!

The book starts with Simon's story of falling for an old flame and starting an extramarital affair. It also begins with a murder....

Vicky is Simon's wife, and once she's married to Simon for 10 years, she can get her hands on his trust money. Vicky has played the long game. She enlists help for when the time comes. Nothing and no one is getting in her way of that 20+ million dollars. 

As each characters pov is dug into, the story gets wilder. Each twist is jaw-dropping. Just when you think you've figured it out, a new revelation slaps you in the face. It's hard to go into the plot too much because it'll give too much away, and nothing is as it seems. Expect the unexpected and buckle up for some late night reading.🥱
