I like the way the author sets this up: everyone has something to hide and is worried that they’ve contributed to the deaths of a beloved wife and son! Then all hell breaks loose in the last 30% when we find out everyone’s secrets. There were just too many characters and secrets to care about any of them, and ultimately the great reveal fell a bit flat for me. But the writing was impeccable and I was entertained throughout.

Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for an eARC.
