Listened to the audio book and the narrator was great! I think Frankie's gender exploration was well written, and Maud was lovable but still had realistic flaws.

Thank you to Netgalley and Hachette Audio for the ALC of this book!
Maude has grand plans to fake her death, run away, and live free as a completely different person, out from under her family's thumb. But when Frankie discovers her plot while on "family vacation" in Hawaii, they insist Maude takes them with her.
This was amazing! Wendy Heard writes thrillers like no other and I was invested from the first page to the last. I love Maude, love Frankie, love the faking their deaths plots and the on the run scenes and everything else that happens that would be spoilery!!!
There are so many twists and turns, especially within Frankie's storyline. And I'm honestly just in love with the whole vibe. I LOVED the ending.
This book will grab you by the shirt and pull you underwater for the whole ride, and you'll be glad it did!
The audiobook narration is excellent, and I highly recommend!
