I was completely team Catherine throughout the entire book. I LIVED for her chapters! Simon was just insufferable throughout the ENTIRE book; probably one of the most insufferable characters I've ever read. He frustrated me sooooooo much! As for the book overall, all I have to say is THIS is what I want when I read a "domestic thriller". It had enough drama (so much!) and twists and turns to keep you hooked by displaying them through the lens of a dysfunctional relationship. Amazing! Out of the three John Marrs books I've read I have to say that this one was my favorite.
