I’ll read anything Riley Sager ever writes. As always, this was a gripping, mysterious story. The main character is a flawed, alcoholic widow, actress, who’s basically been shunned to her families old lake house . When she meets the new neighbor from across the lake in a very mysterious way, things seem to just get more unexplainable. I can guarantee that what you think is happening in this book, is wrong haha. At the twist I was like wtffff definitely didn’t see that one coming!
