Friends Like These by Kimberly McCreight
3.0
Friends from Vassar reunite for a weekend 10 years after graduation in an attempt to stage an intervention for their friend, Keith, who is an addict. Their friendship took a turn 10 years earlier when they were partying on the roof of a college building and someone fell to their death. This led to the death, presumably suicide, of their friend Alice.
When they take a trip to a town in the Catskills, the police officer assigned to the case has a tragedy trying her to the area. Julia’s sister, Jane, was killed savagely, and her friend, Bethany, was never recovered.
Maeve, Jonathan, Derrick, Stephanie, Keith, and an outsider Finch, are in for a terrible weekend.
This book has the premise of being great, but there were too many storylines happening. There was a lot of betrayal and backstabbing. Plenty of hints to give you clues to the killer’s identity, but still somewhat surprising.
