Thanks so much to NetGalley and Andi Holloway for the opportunity to read and review her debut novel - it's a good one!
It took me awhile to get into the writing style of this book. The book is centered around a husband and wife, both writers, and the story is told from the point of view of the wife but as she is talking to her husband about the events. However, this style ends up being explained and perfect for the telling of this book.
This is one of those books that you don't want to give anything away because there are lots of lies, untruths, twists and turns that you will need to let unfold. Bert is the husband, a once best-selling novelist, now struggling to finish his latest book. Harper is his second wife who put her own writing career on the back burner to take care of Bert and his son from his first marriage, Matthew. Life with Matthew hadn't been easy since he was accused of murdering his best friend when he was only a boy. Add to that fact that Bert made his money writing a thinly-veiled book based on that murder. It all starts to unravel with the knock on the door telling Bert and Harper that Matthew has been found dead.
Can't wait to read more from this author!
