A review by kgeogheghan
The Skeleton Key by Erin Kelly

dark emotional tense medium-paced

4.0

This is a fascinating and gripping tale of a treasure hunt book that became a worldwide sensation. The story spans from the creation of the book to the fifty year anniversary, and follows two best friends, their lives and intertwined families, and the repercussions their 'competitive nature' has on the people around them. 

The characters and relationships are complex and compelling. The reveals are well laid and paced, making a book that's difficult to put down. Overall, it's a great mystery novel that I highly recommend. 

Thank you to the publisher and NetGalley for the ARC of this book, in exchange for an honest review.
