Edith is a reluctant patient in a nursing home, Patience works in the home helping care for the residents. Edith thinks she’s found a kindred spirit, not realizing that Patience is lying to her. When the truth comes out, there’s no more reason for pretense, but the two women must rely on each other to sort out the past and keep another tragedy from occurring. Feeney is the queen of plot twists and her latest doesn’t disappoint

This book leans more towards the family drama/ domestic suspense side rather than a psychological thriller, so I was not as shocked by any of the major twists. Still, the story was fast paced, clever and engaging. I loved the multiple POVs and how with time, each narrator’s story intersected in ways I did not fully expect. Plus, the short chapters made it easy to binge the book, as I was eager to find out the truth of what really happened.

This was one of my most anticipated reads for 2023 and I really enjoyed the twisting and turning storyline.

This revolves around four women who are all more connected than they realize. I went into this one completely and I mean COMPLETELY blind… I knew Alice Feeney had a new book and I was already sold! I am glad I didn’t know anything, because the way this story unfolds was remarkable.

What happened when you do something bad for a good reason? That’s what this book really is about. Four women connected by their actions. And the ending had me REELING.

I thought this was narrated to perfection!
