Ooh this was a good thriller. It had me on the edge of my seat and I absolutely couldn't put it down. I loved that we got an insider perspective on the family from Cam, even though he's adopted and didn't have the happiest time growing up in that house, and an external perspective from Jules, who has married into the family and doesn't know them. 

There were so many questions in the story. What really happened to Ruby as a baby - and did the right baby come home? Why did she adopt Cam? How did she die? And what happened to all of Ruby's husbands? What secrets is Jules keeping? 

A huge thank you to the author and the publisher for providing an e-ARC via Netgalley. This does not affect my opinion regarding the book.
