4 stars. Thanks to NetGalley, the publisher and author for the opportunity to read and review this book!
Another good psychological thriller - I waivered between 4 and 5 stars for this book. I love how the story was told in two voices: Before-Emma and Now-Jane.
Both of these narrators are chosen to be renters/caretakers for a very unusual house - one that comes with so many rules set forth by the architect who built it. The house is technologically intelligent - shower comes on when you step in at the exact temperature you like, you can't bring any clutter to disrupt the minimalism (not even books!), and on and on. Both narrators are trying to escape from their pasts - Emma from a burglary at her previous home and Jane from a stillbirth. They both begin relationships with the architect.
There the fun begins - this is a very quick read with short alternating chapters. I really enjoyed figuring out the all the truths amidst all the lies.
