Un drame/thriller psychologique efficace, Lisa Jewell est toujours aussi douée pour dépeindre les problèmes de notre société dans leur complexité.

I always enjoy a book with multiple perspectives and the progression of the plot was good. The resolution feels a little anticlimactic.

once Roan was shown to be having an affair it was suspicious and then we find out about Harrison and it’s obvious it was going to be a combination

The last chapter had a little shock but other than that I didn’t find it a real page turner with any twists and turns but I also read a lot of crime genre books.

This book didn’t hook me until the very last chapter of the after section. I’m not sure exactly why it didn’t hook me, it just didn’t. It was a decent storyline though. I was also not really happy with the “plot twist” Like it was kinda dull
