Many thanks to NetGalley and Sourcebooks Landmark for gifting me a digital ARC of this dark comedy book by Jennifer Holdich. All opinions expressed in this review are my own - 4 stars!
Daisy spends her days trying to figure out how to escape her abusive marriage to her controlling husband, James. On the night before she plans to leave, they attend a local fundraiser and on the way home, Daisy accidentally strikes a pedestrian. James insists they take the man home and hide the body. Things get even worse from there.
I love a good dark comedy book, and this one had that in spades. Daisy is such a fun character, even when she makes crazy decisions. I love how she fights back with James in small but powerful ways. Their housekeeper, Mrs. Billings, is a hoot too. She's a kleptomaniac and Daisy leaves things out for her to steal. This is very much a cat-and-mouse game as both Daisy and James grapple with the police and press. A very entertaining read!
