We all have that friend—the one who doesn't quite belong. Dinah Marshall is that person and knows it. After someone drops out, she's invited to spend the weekend at a luxury holiday home with women she's known since university. However, the gulf between them has widened since then, and Dinah is conscious of being the only one with no money, career, partner or children. Feeling like an outsider, she takes to snooping around the house.

I admit, I usually look at the amount of reviews for a book before I sample or read the reviews. This one had 374 and I thought “eh, I’ll just sample it and see..” and I am SO GLAD I DID!!! I was on the edge of my seat the entire time. I’m so sad it’s over. That ending was unpredictable! Loved loved loved it!

I feel nauseous after the ending of this book. Very disappointed in that last chapter. But whatever.
If I rolled my eyes any harder, they’d get stuck. The only reason it’s getting performance stars is because the narrators did well and the story was intriguing up till the end.

A single mother turns up dead at the bottom of the river that runs through town. Earlier in the summer, a vulnerable teenage girl met the same fate. They are not the first women lost to these dark waters, but their deaths disturb the river and its history, dredging up secrets long submerged. Left behind is a lonely 15-year-old girl. Parentless and friendless, she now finds herself in the care of her mother's sister, a fearful stranger who has been dragged back to the place she deliberately ran from - a place to which she vowed she'd never return.

What a story! Dark but definitely attention keeping. I was starting to figure it out but of course wanted to keep listening to make sure I was right.
