Jennifer's fiancé wants her to forget the whole incident, but when she closes her eyes, she can still see the bloody face of the woman who asked for her help.

Olivia is in a rut. Burdened with caring for her brain-damaged brother and already feeling like a spinster at 27, she's desperate to escape.

Good, but not my fave Greenwood

Good, but not my favorite of Bryn Greenwood's. I really like Greenwood's unique writing style but the story and characters didn't resonate with me as much as her other books. The ending was a little unsatisfying as well.

Ms. Greenwood has done it again.

This book managers to capture the complicated reality of what is going on beneath the veneer of the characters. Denial and the desire to look “Good“plays a huge part in how they relate to themselves and others.

Read anything by Greenwood

Even this book, which is not her best, is well crafted and worth the read. Bryn Greenwood is an unusual and refreshing writer.

I was hoping it would be good

Readers idea of a black southern male accent, was offensive.
The voices for female lead was bad too. They both sounded weak . Difficult to get through.

loved it!

the characters and story were great! I listen to all her books. look forward to more.
