Lauren, Jess, and Claire have secrets and when their other friend, Tina, goes missing and someone seems to have targeted them, they wonder who will be next.
This is a slower moving than I anticipated read, but it’s still a great mystery. The reveal unwinds more and more as each page turns until the ending. And that ending? Whoa. There is closure, but there’s also a hint that maybe there’s more to come.
The characters are not really all that likeable. And yet they are. I can’t explain it. The underlying menace running through the entire story is palpable and I really enjoy the way it’s told. The switching POVs are great though most of the story is told from Lauren’s perspective. A little too neatly done in some areas, but forgivable because the plot is intriguing. I’d definitely read more by this new-to-me author.
