I liked this. It could be a little frustrating at times, and the characters can be infuriating, but it kept me guessing. I couldn't wait to pick it back up and figure out what would happen. I'm usually an excellent "predictor" but this one had me stymied more than once. I read this regularly, so I'm not sure on the audio experience.

Another solid domestic thriller!! This has definitely become my favorite sub-genre of mystery thrillers. And this one is heavy on domestic twists and suspenseful thrills!!
While it was a little slow to start, the intrigue never stops. It increases with each chapter (short chapters are the best) and throws in punch after punch of “WTF?!“ drama. This one is best if you go in blind, so I won’t say much else except that you will definitely have trust issues after finishing it.
Robyn Harding is SO GOOD at what she does!! Fans of “Sleeping with the Enemy”, “Gone Girl”, “Killing Eve” and the like should flock to this book.
