smilesgiggle's review against another edition
2.0
The plot is very similar to a book I have read in the past - man abusing wife, gaslighting.
Heather - the much younger woman, engaged to Stephan, lack of self worth and self esteem.
Tully - Oldest daughter, neurotic, unhealthy coping mechanisms
Rachel - Youngest daughter, struggling to solve the mystery of a large sum of money her mother had hidden
I enjoyed the writing, the characters - it held my attention, but I wouldn't recommend.

Didn’t really like it. Story wasn’t suspenseful and some parts just didn’t make sense to me. I also don’t condone provocation and expectations of no consequences to follow. That really turned me off. It’s a regular story, no twists and turns.

The beginning few pages didn’t catch my attention but once past page 10 it was good. I like how the author told the story through the characters each narrating a chapter. It was a little slow starting but really turned into a fun and twisty story!
More of a slow burn” but I prefer to think of them as character-driven suspense novels. Readers who are looking for action-packed plot-driven thrillers may not enjoy this as much as I did.
