How well do you know your friends?

Isolated and embroiled in a custody battle, Mary is desperate for a friend. So when she meets the charming and enigmatic Willa at a Brooklyn playground, their connection feels fated. But during a margarita-fueled moms’ night out, Mary shares her darkest secret about her ex, George, and the next morning Willa simply disappears. No calls, no texts, nothing.

Two months later, Mary’s divorce is almost finalized, and she’s trying to build a new life for her son in upstate New York. On her first day in town, she runs into Willa . . . only Willa’s name is now Annie, and she’s got an entirely new family in tow. When George turns up dead and Mary becomes the prime suspect, she has no choice but to turn to her only friend in town: Willa.

As coincidences—and evidence—pile up, Mary begins to wonder whether Willa had something to do with George’s death. Is the woman a friend or a foe, a confidante or just a con? Mary must uncover the truth before she loses everything.

Interesting

The title is what caught my attention. While this one was interesting and I wanted to know how it was going to end, I don’t think it is going to be all that memorable for me.

enjoyable lights mystery

Honestly enjoyed the story. I am at a point where I have consumed so much of one genre that I need to switch it up, but this story had pull, while not jaw dropping, was decently developed and a good story. The weaved web was a bit far fetched, but still enjoyable.

What a rollercoaster

I loved this book and couldn’t put it down. It was a rollercoaster in that just when you thought you had it figured out, another twist came at you. Also, my stomach literally hurt at times because I was so anxious for the MC. She seemed so real to me that I was way too invested in her wellbeing; luckily I listened mostly in my car so no one heard me yelling at her to be careful.

The narrators were perfect, their acting really amped up the drama without ever being over the top.

Bravo
