The book opens with the titular death. We don't know who the victim is or the motive, that all unfolds in the day leading up to party. Nadine is throwing a 60th birthday party for her famous author mother. The birthday is also the anniversary of the death of her aunt 30 years prior. We follow Nadine on the day of the party as she uncovers secrets and tries to keep some of her own undergrads.
I started this one expecting it to be a typical thriller with predictable twists. I was pleasantly surprised and was kept guessing on who the victim would be until the end. This was a pretty quick thriller to read, and that meant there wasn't a lot of time for things to drag on. This was truly and enjoyable read.
