3.5

This is a well-written psychological thriller which keeps you turning the pages right up to the end. This double mystery weaves two timelines together about the community surrounding a summer camp. Told from multiple perspectives this clever novel interrogates themes of misogyny, agency, coercion and class. Twisty and intelligent - a good summer literary thriller.
This honest review is given with thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for this book.
