I actually read this book through Kindle Unlimited first, so I was excited to listen to it as an audiobook as well and I'm glad I did!! I loved the narrator's voice throughout. I will definitely look for more from both the author and the narrator in the future.

I had just read The Teacher by Freida McFadden before this so it gave me similar teacher-mystery vibes. I enjoyed reading multiple viewpoints and felt like the characters were developed well. The characters certainly all had flaws and secrets, which led to many twists and turns throughout the story. I wouldn't say that this story gave me any chills, but it was more of a mysterious read where I was suspicious of everyone at different points. I would recommend anyone giving this one a read/listen!

Thank you to Netgalley, Lauren North and Bolinda Audio for this ALC.
