• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? No
• Loveable characters? It's complicated

• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

4.25

I found the book started off a bit confusing to read and understand the storyline with the constant changes between Nina and Maggie narrating chapters while the also changes in time periods, but once I got into it I was hooked and didn’t want to put the book down because I just wanted to know what happened with these characters. 

There were twists and turns round every corner, and John Marrs didn’t disappoint with a great thriller.
