Many thanks to NetGalley and Bookouture for gifting me a digital copy of the latest thriller by Sue Watson - 4.5 stars rounded up for a story filled with characters you won't completely trust!
Sam and Lauren have been tight since their first day of nursery school and their parents have been family ever since. Sam's single mom, Georgie, has loved a male role model for him in Tim, Lauren's dad. and Helen is her best friend. When Sam and Lauren get married, both families are thrilled. The couple buys a remote cottage which fits in well with Sam's job as an environmentalist but less so for Lauren, who has to make a long commute to her job as a doctor. When Lauren is found dead only weeks after the wedding, everyone is shocked and soon fractions are evident and sides are taken.
This was just a roller coaster of emotions that will leave you not trusting anyone. I kept changing who I thought the guilty party was and enjoyed all the unreliable characters. This book certainly is a reflection of the old adage that you never know what goes on behind closed doors. Another great read by Sue Watson!
