One dinner party will destroy everything.

The night that throws a wrecking ball into Abby’s life starts out perfectly at first. There’s still a hint of summer sun in the purple-streaked sky. Abby and her best friend, Sienna, look on fondly as their two husbands laugh under the garden gazebo. None of them know it’s the last time they will be together again.

What starts out as just a little fun has devastating consequences for the couples. Alone with Sienna’s husband, Greg, Abby finds him unexpectedly charming.

Abby is desperate to tell her husband and Sienna the truth but can’t risk Greg sharing what she told him. She has no choice but to keep quiet. Then Greg suddenly disappears.

The complexity of the characters

This book had me guessing until almost a very end. Being the amateur sleuth that I am, I figured it out. Very enjoyable, and I liked the readers.

creative with lots of twist

easy to continue once the story starts. however some unanswered questions still lingers from all of the plot twists.

Slow at first but gets better

It started kind of weird and slow to me but I am glad I stuck with it, it has a lot of twists and I didn’t see the end coming.

Skipped half of it

It's filled with repitition and drags on and on. I literally listened to the first couple of hours then skipped to the last and the characters were still going on about the same thing. The plot twist in the end would probably have hit harder if the book was edited better.
The performance also got to me as there's no effort made to differentiate between the characters.

this book dragged

this book took entirely too long. there was no suspense. the level of mistrust was stupid. a simple conversation would have resolved 1/4 of the plot line.
