Reseñas de la Crítica

"An ending worthy of Hitchcock....The brutal denouement will shake readers lulled by the tale's cozy trappings, but those familiar with Patricia Highsmith's particular brand of sinister storytelling will recognize the mayhem Fielding so cunningly unleashes." (Publishers Weekly)

"The author keeps the tension high and the pages turning, creating a chillingly paranoid atmosphere." (Booklist)

"Okay" Fielding ...

I'd rate this book as just "Okay." Much, much longer than needed to tell this story. Have patience!

Excellent

This mystery kept me spellbound from beginning to end. Very compelling. You just don't know what will happen next.

Crazy!

What a crazy ride. I really enjoyed listening to this story. I didn't see the end coming.

Chilling paranoia or black comedy?

I have to admit that I really love books (and movies) that surprise me so much that they take my breath away. They are very rare, and this is one of them. I'm hoping that the Audible editors will consider making this book a Daily Deal so that others can discover it. Bravo, Joy Fielding!

amaziinngg

this book was definitely amazing and the end blrw me away must read!! you wont regtet it

Twists and turns!

Loved it! It’s hard to write a review because I don’t want to ruin anything - enjoy!

Horrid

It started off great, got verrry boring for most of it, then became the worst book I've ever read in my life and I've read doozies. After this, I honestly won't ever read another Joy Fielding book ever again. They keep getting worse and this one is so horrible it defies explanation. Fielding appears to have forgotten that people want to ENJOY books, not have really horrid and terrible experiences reading them. I wish I could get my money and time back. This book was just horrid.
