my review : ✮✮✮✮

What. A. Ride.

This story was dripping with suspense and was virtually impossible to put down. Alternating timelines and points of view will keep you on your toes (and maybe flipping back a few pages to say, “Wait, who is this?”), and the twists and turns make this a well-told, satisfying story.

This book follows Avery Mason, a famous TV host, who sets out to uncover the truth behind a gruesome tale of sex, betrayal, and murder twenty years after the investigation was abandoned in the wake of 9/11. While Avery is focused on producing the best segment for her primetime show, secrets of her own are threatening to rear their ugly head, and they have consequences.

This story is clever and propulsive, a wild ride from the start, and a great book to get you out of a rut.

I did find the writing a bit repetitive at times, but I think the author thought that was necessary, given all the plot lines and characters. It definitely helps keep everything straight.

Best paired with RUM! Holy moly, I was craving my favorite vacation cocktail, a Mai Tai, while reading this story.
