I really wanted to rate this one higher but I’m so unhappy with the ending!! It just left me feeling empty.. but I love Lisa Jewell’s work. She writes beautifully and with so much detail making you feel as if you’re right there living alongside every character. I just wish it would’ve ended differently.

Not my favorite by Lisa Jewell, but a very quick read. The ending was abrupt and the suspense was mild but overall the pace was consistent.
