This has the makings of a good thriller, but just missed the mark for me. Neither of the main characters was likable, and it was never clear who I was supposed to be rooting for. In fact, none of the characters were sufficiently fleshed-out. In contrast to that, there was a lot of attention paid to small details (i.e. how the fish was cooked), so much so that I found it a bit distracting. I do thank the publisher and NetGalley for providing this ARC for review.

A very fast and easy read - both the female protagonists turned out to be pretty unpleasant characters although I quite liked how that author only let us in to these secrets slowly. The male characters were pretty bland I thought but that didn't really spoil the enjoyment of the story which was well plotted and realised.

My thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for the ARC.

This is a really creepy novel about an assistant who is secretly out to destroy her boss. The tension builds and builds and builds and you’re kind of wondering what’s going to happen until the last page. I would highly recommend it

This book was so good! I was hooked from the first part of the story till the end. A really good mystery/thriller. Easy to read and such a good book.
