I've been a fan of Sharon Bolton's books since Sacrifice and this one didn't disappoint with its fear, atmosphere and twists. The insight into the narrators minds and the tense unfolding of events in an idyllic village kept me gripped. I counted stop reading but who needs sleep?
The small details using all senses made this an immersive experience from the baked goods in Anna's bakery to the isolated lakeside and woods where danger lurks. A perfect thriller for the dark evenings.

I think this might just be her best book yet!
I was totally captivated by this story from the very beginning, not knowing who the main narrator was until around 70% of the way through the book was different and I loved it! I kept thinking I had figured things out and then in the usual Bolton style, she threw in plot twist after plot twist! It was dark, fast paced and creepy! I really enjoyed it!! Thanks so much to NetGalley and the publishers for my ARC!

Woah! This is an excellent read with lots happening. The twists when they come are completely unexpected. I’ll read this again to see if I missed any clues.

Thanks to NetGalley and the publishers for the ARC in return for my honest and unbiased opinion.
