I loved this book. I flew through it due to the suspense, the drama, the build up. truly a page turner. short, digestible chapters that flip between multiple characters / situations. Easy to read but a lot to take away as well. Would recommend to anyone who enjoys multiple POVs, mystery and drama.

An intricate story about “how far would you go for the ones you love”; would you lie? kill? hide/tell the truth? And the consequences of those decisions, in addition to what-if scenarios.
I caught myself imagining what I would do if I was in the character’s places.
This was my first Liane Moriarty book and won’t be my last!!
