Thank you to NetGalley for this ARC! #netgalley #ineedyoutoreadthis
This thriller was a little sluggish at first but overall, I thought it was really fulfilling! I was guessing right up to the very end of this entertaining and fascinating book!
Alex's relocation to NYC was supposed to be a new beginning and a fresh start. However, she is confined to a uninteresting career as a pharmaceutical copywriter. When she comes upon an opening for a writer to take over the well-known Dear Constance column, everything changes. However, there is a sinister reason why they require a replacement. Francis Keene, the original author of the column, was slain at her beach house when she was by herself. The murder remains unsolved and has shocked Francis's whole fan base.
On a whim, Alex chooses to apply, and before she realizes it, she gets the job. Alex soon finds her secret lifestyle exposed, and she starts getting threatening messages. Her focus is on figuring out who killed Francis and who is writing these messages. Can Alex survive to tell the tale?
What I liked:
It was such a suspenseful read! I was not prepared for what transpired. Attempting to put things together sparked my curiosity quite a few times.
- The way it was written! I adore this author's style and the way they construct a narrative. The idea of an assistance column struck me as a novel approach to the thriller subgenre.
Overall this was 4/5 stars and was a great read!
