The Note by Alafair Burke
Release date: 01/07/2025
Three woman go on a little getaway which was supposed to be relaxing and fun. One of them leaves a note on someone’s car and it ends up a missing person’s case. Some secrets come to light and of course twists. I admit I did figure out the whodunnit but there were a couple twists/turns that I did not.
Overall it was a fun and entertaining thriller to read. Quick pacing. Tension. I found myself not being able to put it down.
Thank you @netgalley and @alafairburke for the eARC in exchange for an honest review.
4 stars!!!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
