The slowest burn I've ever read from a thriller. Only picked up at the 7 hour mark. Which is a little unfortunate that you spend 7 hours listening to only get 2 hours of intriguing action.

This was like if an episode of Law and Order met Desperate Housewives. It was pretty slow up until like 70% then I finished it in one sitting.

Ooh this was funnn. I LIVE for drama like this. The audiobook cast was excellent.

Basically the whole thing is there's lots of juicy juicy drama and you know someone is dead but you don't know who is dead. It's very Housewives of wheverever...Upper class and middle aged - these women love to gossip and lie and spend money.

TBH, one of my biggest gripes was this HIGH END salon only had TWO employees - absolutely not. AND these very rich women were getting regular polish instead of acrylic of gel-x on their nails - absolutely not. ANYWAYS, I read [listened] to this really fast and really liked it.
