Przestałam wystawiać gwiazdki słuchanym przeze mnie audiobookom, bo nie słucham ich po to, żeby przeżyć literackie uniesienia, ale po to, żeby zabić czas, ale no, przy tym nie mogę się powstrzymać. WTAF WAS THAT XDDDDDDDDDD IKS DE

Is anyone safe? Maybe not! Jade, a retired forensic pathologist, has severe mental issues but Tomas, a hedge fund investor, loves her anyway. He loves her when she's having good times and when she's having bad times but all Jade can see is a cheating husband even though he's never cheated. Emma is a successful dentist, dating Alastair, another forensic pathologist. Their relationship is still in the honeymoon phase, both on their best behaviour.
Jade and Tomas have just moved next door to Emma and paranoid Jade knows, immediately, that Tomas and Emma will have an affair and she cannot allow that to go unpunished. But she has met her match with Emma and Alastair, and Emma and Alastair have met their match in each other. What ensues is a murder and a game of wits and deceit and it's hard to imagine if anyone will be left standing by the end of the book. The only likeable person is Tomas and that doesn't get him very far.
This is a guilty pleasure kind of book, filled with despicable people doing despicable things. Is it ok for bad things to happen to bad people? Watch and see it happen.
Thank you to Avon Books and NetGalley for this ARC.

This book was like a rollercoaster, one minute I was gripped then I’d be a bit settled with the plot, and then it would pick up again.
The book is told from three peoples perspective Emma, Jade and Alistair. I personally found Emma to be the only likeable character, and I quickly got frustrated with Jade/Alistair.
It was a good book, and I only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars was just because I found myself scanning the odd chapter as it wasn’t gripping me.
