This was nothing like I expected. I went into this thinking it was about the current couple that lived in this apartment/cottage and I was kind of right but also very wrong. 

The story was good as far as thrillers go. I was expecting a bigger twist at the end. The mystery was really easy to figure out. 

One critisicm for the audiobook, the narrator doesn't do a good job at switching her voice around for different characters. We get POV from 5 characters, 4 of which are women. They all sounded the same, which lead me to lots of rewinding and relistening to sections just to figure out who is talking.
