Although the action takes its time, everything kinda slowly evolves, this story is brilliantly written and keeps the reader hooked till the end. Think about twists and turns! This book has them all.
Usually, a book is a huge turn off for me when I cannot connect with any of the characters. Somehow, this story, these characters, are different. They are all very hateful, still I just kept reading because I could not put this book down.
I cannot recommend this book enough. It was an amazing read just in time to finish the year.

This is a fantastic domestic thriller. Helen is an excellent naive, kind character. Rachel’s motives are mysterious, and you know something has to be going on with the other characters, but you don’t know what until the end.
The pacing was great. Helen’s pregnancy and impending birth really adds to the tension level as everything comes to a head at the end of the book.
