This story is entertaining, but the implausible plot will cause you to groan frequently. At its best, the writing is quite good. I feel that this author is capable of producing something better, but she needs to work harder on the plotting. Lots of deaths, wildly unlikely escapes, blithely committed murders, give this book the feel of a mildly entertaining, but ultimately forgettable movie drama.
A lot of books in the last few years have been touted as the next Gone Girl. In my opinion, this one came as close as any I've read. I enjoyed the back and forth between the detectives working the case and the husband and wife involved in the main plot. A very good read.
