Told from points of view of all three friends, this book about women in broken relationships helping each other through has a murder mystery, police investigation, new men, a strange house and more. I got so caught up in the fast pace of the story that I read it in one sitting.

It was an interesting story but it was drawn out over way to many chapters to get to the twists..which I felt were anticlimactic and predictable as the ending is very close to a movie I saw in the 90s.

Fast-paced, quick read.

This thriller is amazing. It trapped me in a way that I didn’t wanted to drop it down. Super recommended!

Mainly told through the stories of Margaret and Sam this starts of as a well intentioned girls trip that bit by but just starts falling apart and every twist just when you think you have nailed along comes another plot twist.This was such an engaging book that kept me up a nice easy read!
