This was a WILD ride. All the toxic domestic vibes, so if you love domestic suspense/thrillers I think you’ll love this. It has all the applicable tropes for the genre.
I don’t think I liked any of the characters in the book and there’s one in particular I kept hoping would meet an untimely end. And usually when I don’t like any of the characters it’s hard for me to stay interested in the story but with this one, I kept second guessing what was actually going on and needed to find out the truth. The short chapters and multiple POVs kept the story moving along at a fast pace.
There were a few plot points I guessed and thought predictable. Others that I thought were unnecessary to the overall storyline. And one I didn’t expect until it started playing out.
Arguably my favorite Shari Lapena so far. I’ve now read all of her published book so far and can’t wait to read her next book!
