I really enjoyed the multiple perspectives in this book. Foley was able to flesh out well-crafted backstories for each character. I was able to predict some motives as the story went on, but I think that is due to the author's strong writing- she really managed to lay the foundation from the beginning. I did not see the ending coming at all. Great twist! One of the best thrillers/mysteries I have read this year.
