4.75
First Alice Feeney novel and I read it in 1.5 days. I really enjoyed her storytelling and the family dynamics. The twist was quite shocking and left me wanting more from Alice!
While I appreciate the nod to And Then There Were None, it felt heavy handed given the obvious parallels to Christie's 1939 novel. Given the original title of the book; I think Feeney could have left it out. 4.75/5 which would have been a 5 without reference to the racist book.
