Either I’m picking the wrong thrillers or this is a continual theme I have found myself stuck in. I feel like every thriller I read is a big cast, 90% have done a bad thing, and there’s a murder to solve. Rinse and repeat. And this didn’t change that scenario much.
I did LOVE the audiobook. Audio was well done and that did make moving through this better. Highly recommend that route.
There were interesting tidbits throughout the story. It wasn’t a total lost cause. Having the multiple POV’s kept things going enough and I liked seeing each little side to the story. I was pulled in wrong directions a few times on the whodunnit and I appreciate that those mystery plot lines worked well.
While not quite a winner for me, it still might be a gem for you.
Overall audience notes:
- Thriller/Mystery
- Language: some strong
- Romance: closed door/fade to black
- Violence: high
- Trigger/Content Warnings: murder, knife violence, infidelity, missing child, depression, non-consensual drugging, forced captivity, brief mentions of child abuse and suicide
