Full of Twists & Turns to its Chilling End

Full of twists and turns, and with a tenacious detective that “sinks her teeth in and doesn’t let go until she hits bone”, Kimberly McCreight's new novel tells the tale of betrayal and murder with modern flair. Suspenseful, fast paced, and full of red herrings, it leaves you wondering and wanting to know more all in the same moment.... the ending is delivered is Ms. McCreight’s signature style, and does not disappoint.

Lots of characters to keep track of (hence the 4 stars) - but the narrators all did an excellent job of bringing their characters to life. Really enjoyed a first listen to Ewan Chung, and this one was one of Lauren Fortgang’s most nuanced and best performances.

Thank you, Ms. McCreight - keep ‘‘em coming. Look forward to your next read!

Deserving of all the Kudos

The author presents her story in a rather unique manner, toggling back and forth among the characters and time periods. The ending was both a stunner and a very satisfactory conclusion.

Worth the Effort

I’ve loved Kimberly McCreight since reading ‘Deconstructing Amelia’. Going into this book, I saw there were quite a few low ratings and I understand where they’re coming from. It took over half of the book for me to form a connection to the characters - and probably a little longer to care how it turned out. However, the last quarter of the book made me glad I’d invested the time and effort.

too many characters and petty teenage drama

this book was ok. most of the book was filling a group of friends and a murder that happened. we also follow a detective. I didn't really like any of the characters. there was too much drama as well.

riveting and surprising

enjoyed the story, the characters and the way the plot developed. Julia Scutt's a rock star.
