I really enjoyed reading this book, I didn’t think I would as it’s during Covid but i was surprised. Indeed, the pandemic – with masks, lockdown, limited social contact –actually creates a brilliant and creepy backdrop for a thriller in which secrecy is key.
I enjoyed the timeline jumps and the same story being told from both Ciara and Oliver’s perspectives. It gave a really rounded experience and reminds you that you don’t always get the whole story from one person.
It is engrossing, suspenseful, and exciting with interesting and unique characters, but it is so full of twists and turns that there is very little that can be said about the story itself without spoiling something. I think this would appeal to domestic thriller fans mainly, although there is the added bonus of a police procedural element too. It’s pacey, cleverly-plotted.
