Five Bad Deeds by Caz Frear

4.0

This was a very layered domestic thriller and I had so much fun reading it.

Ellen has a seeming normal life. She is raising a teenage daughter and two younger kiddos. She works in education. She is renovating her dream home… but something is lurking behind the curtain.

She starts getting targeted by someone… she is getting letters that warn of her impending doom. Someone is out there making life incredibly difficult for her at every turn and she doesn’t know who.

We are taken through this winding tale of how she wound up in this predicament, who is involved and how close to home it could potentially be…

I thought this was really entertaining. The characters, both good and bad, are all so intriguing. There were moments I thought I knew where we were headed, only to have the rug ripped from under me. This was twisty and diabolical and I really enjoyed it.
