I adored Behind Her Eyes, especially as I read it when it was brand new and there were no spoilers, no TV show, etc. and I could go into all the deliciously shocking story blind. Since then Pinborough's books haven't landed well for me. Always hoping to find the same sweet spot as Behind Her Eyes I was eager to read this one, and finished it in a weekend.
It feels a bit like revisiting some of her previous world-building, and unlike it BHE, it did bother me that there wasn't much of an explanation for the how of it all.
The story has great classic tropes and misdirection that kept me reading, and I was eager to learn what was really happening. Once I did, I felt a little "Huh..." about it, but it was still a fun read. I think the very end will make for interesting book club discussions as I have mixed feelings about it.
