The Playground by Jane Shemilt

4.0

This domestic thriller is about three couples who meet when their children share a tutor.   The families get close and their lives become intertwined with past and present secrets, culminating in an accident that they must come to terms with.  The characters are all extremely flawed and really had no redeeming qualities in my opinion, making it hard for me to really want any of them to find happiness or success.  The plot has a lot of twists which improved my rating, but this one isn’t nearly as good as the other one I’ve read by this author, The Daughter.  4/5 stars.
