I loved this book. I haven't read a book in a while that I haven't wanted to put down. Lots of intrigue and mystery. I would highly recommend this book.

Book blurb...
Someone lied. Someone died...
This dark, twisting novel from the Sunday Times bestselling author Tasmina Perry will keep you on the edge of your seat. Perfect for everyone who's been gripped by the TV series RIVIERA or THE AFFAIR, or J. P. Delaney's THE GIRL BEFORE. 'Gripping... Great pace and brilliantly written. I loved it' Daily Mail on The House on Sunset Lake
When you're invited to spend summer in the Hamptons with a group of new friends, you agree - who wouldn't? But then you realise you're taking the place of another woman, a woman who died in mysterious circumstances, just the summer before. Your housemates tell you her death was an accident. But which of them has something to hide?

My thoughts…
The author of The Pool House transported me to the Hamptons in summer with a house full of people who love the good life. From there I found myself intent on solving the death of Alice. I was 100% along for the ride with these characters. I enjoyed Alice's point of view and then the story from the present linking the clues and creating an ending I did not expect.
One for mystery lovers.

I haven't read any Perry for years so thought I'd give this one a go. I really enjoyed it! It was quite gripping & I just had to know what happened. I loved how it switched between Jem's present day story & Alice's pre death story from the summer before.

Thank you Tasmina Perry and Netgalley for a copy of this book.
There is a reason this lady is in my top 5 favourite authors list, Tasmina Perry Rules.
I was captured by Tasmina Perry's writing from her very first book and have happily followed her, watching her grow to the great storyteller that she is. Thank you Tasmina, it has been a pleasure reading along as you style changes and matures.
I highly recommmend you read EVERY book from this fabulous author.

Here we have a great (and surprisingly creepy) little thriller to keep you up at night. The comparison to the tv series The Affair is what drew me in and that was a great comparison, it's mysterious and thrilling while being quiet and gentle. Loved it.
