I received a copy of this book courtesy of NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
Why I wanted to read this book:
Because it was compared to The Girl on the Train and In a Dark and Dark Wood. Two books I enjoyed.
What I liked about this book:
-I enjoyed the female characters. Meg seemed to have it all, is sincere with her relationships and remorseful for her mistakes. Agatha is just "boil the rabbit" crazy.
-Witty humor and lots of funny one liners.
-The friendship reminds me of "Single White Female" for married couples. How well do you really know your friends?
Intriguing relationship drama. The grass always looks green on the other side of the fence. However, things are not always as they appear.
What I didn't like:
There were several times I didn't agree with a characters' actions and I didn't feel it was well supported. It didn't detract from my overall enjoyment of the book.
This was the first book I have read by Michael Robotham. I enjoyed it so much I plan to start his Joseph O'Loughlin series and "Life or Death".
