I was really intrigued by the premise of this story and I was especially drawn to the multiperspective style of this novel, but it just didn’t follow through like i had hoped. I enjoyed reading the first half of this book, before everything started coming to light, and I enjoyed the style Sam Carrington shows throughout the book because it felt as if you were right alongside the narrators, investigating and plotting right along with them. But the second half of the book was so hard to follow and it had me wondering “What the actual hell is going on?” There are so many plot points and too much happening all at once that it was hard to focus on the main plot, which I assumed was ‘who is wreaking havoc on this poor family who is trying to sell their home’. The ending also had me up in arms because it was very rushed and it didn’t do the job of explaining what had transpired after the ‘climatic evening’ took place, and the storyline was interesting yet it was just executed poorly. I believe this book had really great intentions and it wanted to be mysterious and impossible to figure out before the ending, but it just had me confused and wondering when it would be over. I would like to read more of Sam Carrington because I see really great potential for some awesome mystery/thriller stories with some great characters.
I’d like to thank NetGalley and Avon Books UK for this copy in exchange for an honest review.
