A review by jmatkinson1
This Is How It Ends by Eva Dolan

3.0

Ella is a wellknown urban activist squatting in a block of flats scheduled for demolition. One evening suring a celebratory party she goes back to her flat and finds a dead man lying there. She doesn't call the police or an ambulance but allows herself to be persuaded by her friend Molly to dispose of the body in another part of the building. As time goes on Ella is wracked with guilt and also paranoia, is Molly the good friend she seems?

Having read some of Dolan's previous work, the Zadig and Voltaire series, I was already disposed to enjoy this book. However I could not engage with it.
