Customer Reviews

Boring

Kept waiting for something, anything to happen. I only finished it by skipping through a bunch of the unnecessary stuff that actually took up most of the book. I just wanted to know the truth and it didn’t come until the very end. Not happy with this book.

Loved

I loved this book! Finished it in 2 days

Pounding suspense

Enjoyed the difference in the presentation of the interesting sometimes insane characters.

Fiona Barton does it again!

At times this book was a bit slow, but it leaves you wanting to know the secrets hidden within the “grieving” widow. It makes you question her very motives for every action she had or has taken throughout the book, weaving a web of her story. Fiona Barton is an expert at weaving characters relationships together book to book. While they are a part of what I would call a series you can read them out of order and never feel like you are missing anything. I have read 2 other of her books and was not disappointed in the order in which I read them as she entwined the characters together in each of her books so you feel you know them.
