Wow! What a page-turner!
Loved the twists in this one, could hardly put it down.
A riveting story told from Lisa, Ava and Marilyn's POVs.
Lisa is a mother running from her awful past (snippets are revealed along the way and in the second half of the book, continue to built to reveal after reveal!)
Ava is her daughter hiding secrets of her own.
Marilyn is Lisa's BFF.
I've read a LOT of psychological thrillers and this is one of the best, absolutely riveting!
Pretty standard Sarah Pinborough. She definitely has cornered the psych thriller market, but on some of her novels I just don't think the follow-through does the plot justice. A lot of this book was easy to guess, but it was better than Dead to Her (also by her). Not living up to ‘Behind Her Eyes', which was executed great. I listened to this and I am glad that I did. The narration was excellent and it made the novel easier to get through. I don't really have to much to say other than it was pretty solid. Wasnt the best thing i've ever read, wasnt the worst. Good start into the genre. 3.5 stars/5
