“It occurs to me how grateful I have been for Rachel’s companionship. I find myself admiring her. She is so upbeat about it all.”
But Rachel is not what she seems. She is unstable, unpredictable, and unsettling. Helen starts to become wary when she discovers missing items amongst Rachel’s things. It’s apparent that Rachel is harboring secrets, and Helen is determined to uncover them.
So I haven’t read a thriller in a whiiiile.
This one did not disappoint. The storyline follows Helen’s pregnancy from 24 weeks at the start of her prenatal classes. It's told from three different perspectives. I think it adds to the mystery because you don’t know who is telling the true story. It’s very easy to follow. The scenes were descriptive and I was able to guess the ending but I thought the author did a great job with detailing the chain of events.
I don’t want to give away too much, but this is a must-read for anyone who enjoys crime and thriller novels. I also think it's really good for anyone who wants to get into thrillers but can’t stomach the graphic details on death and dying.
