Waaaah! This story is compelling as fuck. I read it so fast. The audiobook companion added to the excitement of the narrative. I hated Adam for consistently saying that he loved Sarah but chose to cheat on her for a year! I kind of had a vibe that it would be Sarah who was behind all of it, well because she was the aggrieved party and cheated on. 

Eleanor had me roll my eyes every time she said something. Anne, aww, you had no idea. 

Bob, damn you,  I gave it four stars because of the ending. 

The scheming was interesting, too! Too bad for Adam and Sarah's mother they already died. 

I just had a feeling that Sarah wouldn't stop at this. Damn, 11 years, she waited that long for this long game, her patience could be applauded, but it was cruel as hell. 

Yeah, Adam cheated, to pin a murder on him for revenge, smart, but truly cruel.
