  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

4.5

Another Sally Hepworth page turner and I could not put this one down. The characters were all so intriguing and the pace of the book was perfect. I could have done without the flash forwards from the mystery character, especially since when they were finally introduced into the story it was fleeting. It was great having the twist built up throughout the story and you’re completely clued in to the character’s suspicions and mindsets.
