A great thriller, with a well done podcast element, and of course… I’m always down for an unreliable narrator ☺️🤙. I enjoyed the way she fleshed out the characters, twisting the likable ones into their true ugly shapes, giving you pause with those you initially found not so palatable, showing you things aren’t always so black-and-white in a very skilled way. Also- grandma was my favorite. She’s really just the best. If you’re looking for a well done thriller/small town murder mystery, I don’t think you’ll be disappointed. I will certainly be picking up more work by this author!
