 I knew all the ways this could wrong from page one, but that outcome wasn't quite what I was expecting. I always like that there is one more twist in a Shalini Boland novel. I get to the end and saw the big twist and a few others, but then there is always one more.

So twisty and engaging. I wasn't sure who I liked or trusted in this one, but enjoyed sitting back and letting the story take me on a journey.

I popcorn thriller that I could easily see as a movie of the week. Don't read much about this one before you start so none of the twists are spoiled.

I easily read this in a day.
