This book is deeply smart, incredibly unnerving, and I honestly don't know what to think. I hated it for how it made me feel but couldn't put it down. Therefore, I think that must mean that it was good.

A page turner I read in one sitting. I'm glad I didn't read the full flap, I was sold on the premise of two jurors having an affair during a murder trial in Central Florida. 

I did find myself questioning the author's choice in writing the twins as adopted children since the whole adopted evil child trope paints a harmful picture. 

I found this book poetic and riveting.
