I'm not sure why I didn't enjoy this book as much as I thought I would. Perhaps because it was a slow build up or perhaps because its translated into English. I just didn't get the wow twist factor I wanted.

The book follows a group of friends in Sweden on New Year’s Eve, who have known each other for years, and are now parents, two of their children are best friends and they have persuaded their parents to let them throw a New Year’s Eve party without supervision. However, one of the girls goes missing, and it's soon obvious that the adults have secrets of their own.

The story Is told from different points of view to the lead up of New Year's Eve and the aftermath that follows. All of the main characters have a secret that could link them to the disappearance of Jennifer.

I was invested in the book as I wanted to know what happened to Jennifer. I did guess what happened before it was actually revealed but then this is where the book fell flat. I think the author could have done a great blindside to the story that you would not have seen coming as the ending just fell a bit flat.

Overall an OK read, a slow burn where the ending could have been a bit more of an unexpected twist.
