Another fantastically twisty psychological thriller - another book read in a day because i could not put it down. running to get the rest of her books asap 🤩
Connie sees a dead body on a house tour for a house she has become *slightly* obsessed with. Her husband, Kit, doesn’t see it - nor does anyone else.
I LOVED the writing of this - including Connie’s thoughts in italics throughout was so nice and her (and other) character were written so well. I was fully invested in her journey for proof and empathised with her massively.
The inclusion of police evidence throughout was genius and kept me really intrigued in how everything added up (felt like a bit of a detective myself).
I loved how it came together near the end when everything made sense and it became a bit of a race against time - it was so fast paced and just a brilliant experience to read. Excellent concept, really good read and unexpected twists!
