Maybe it's because I didn't read the first book in this series *screams internally* but I just didn't really understand the dynamics between Henry and Lily, or just Henry in general. 
SpoilerThe twist with there being 2 different Richards definitely got me, as I was wondering how they went from plotting the murder of Richard's cousin, to Richard cheating on Joan with his coworker.

I did enjoy the three separate parts and different POVs and timelines. I just struggled to connect with all the characters as I feel like I missed out by not reading the first book in this series.

I enjoyed it very much. However, I hated the narrator for Kimball. He wasn't bad, but we could hear every breath he took. I felt like he was narrating while going up the stairs... Maybe it should have been fixed in editing? It was very distracting.
