This mystery came in at just the right time for me! Definitely needed something with high energy that kept me guessing along the way to get me out of a little reading slump. I loved all of the death/murder suspense, drama, and the Nantucket setting. I also enjoyed how all of the characters are so intertwined (and in ways you don’t realize at first). Brice and Karen are by far the best /most kindhearted characters.

I really liked this one! It was a total page turner. It usually takes me quite a few days to get through a Hildebrand novel. This was a quick read for me. It is now my 2nd favorite EH novel. 28 Summers being my #1 favorite. I can’t wait to dive into Swan Song which is a companion novel to The Perfect Couple AND really can’t wait to watch the Netflix adaptation!! 4 stars!!

It was perfect until the end. One of the most unsatisfying endings I’ve ever read, not only because it’s abrupt and you’re left wondering about the fate of some of the characters, but because it’s so suspenseful you think there’s going to be a big twist you don’t see coming, and then bam. Boring ending.

Read as part of book club. Disappointed that this was more family drama than murder mystery; especially given the anticlimactic ending.
