Book Club Notes
This is a fantastic mystery-thriller with twists you won’t see coming, exceptional writing and evocative character creation. It’s an unpredictable, clever, twisty page turner with zingers of quotes sprinkled throughout. I have never tagged a thriller novel this much before or gone back into pages at the end to unravel mysteries an author hid throughout.
