This book hooks you in right from the beginning - lots of plot twists and characters you aren't sure if you love or hate them. Also loved the Florida setting.

What a whirlwind of a story!

Shell Game, as it's title alludes to, is a game of chance, a slight of hand, a mysterious thriller with fabulous wealth and a hurricane thrown in.
Julie’s mother Kate is getting married to her high school sweetheart. Right away, the night of the wedding, Charlie reveals something that is too awful to repeat. But Kate is nothing but steadfast and she reports the revelation to the police.

What follows next is much like a hurricane - different strong story lines pulling the reader hither and yon. Each storyline is forceful and unique but all come back to the main idea which is what is happening with Kate.

While there may be a tad too many story lines, I loved the details and purpose of each. It's a great thriller filled with tiny thrills along the way.
Thank you to Netgalley!
