The story the main character writes is also a little cringey and I didn't enjoy those parts.
Not my favorite but, it was interesting enough to finish.

I can't say I was a huge fan of the main character, Rob, but I loved Callie. I maybe empathised a bit too much with the sullen, I-hate-everyone-but-I'm-entirely-misunderstood trope but I love it. I found Callie to be really endearing and thoroughly looked forward to getting to her next perspective to see what the other spin was to her side of what was going on.
I found Sundial as a location vastly interesting, as well as Rob & Jack's childhood with the dogs and scientific experiments.
I think Ward is going to be one of my top Thriller authors, and I am very keen to pick up more of her work.
Also, just f**k Rob's husband.

Quite enjoyed this. The twists and turns kept me interested along with the sister dynamic. Will def be checking out more from the author.
If you choose to listen to audio with the ebook, just a heads-up some wording is different from each other. Minor differences but could potentially throw someone off
