Publisher's summary

The deeper the secret, the darker the shadow.

Ten years ago, Jolene nearly killed her friend Elizabeth in a gruesome accident. And no one has any idea. Not even Elizabeth.

Jolene has been trying to outrun the guilt ever since, wandering from place to place and career to career. So she’s shocked when, after her latest move, she runs into the very person she’s been trying to avoid for ten years.

Elizabeth still lives with scars from the accident. And she’s still clueless about what happened that fateful night.

Or is she?

As the two women rekindle a friendship, Elizabeth’s increasingly disturbing behavior makes Jolene wonder if it’s her own guilt stalking her—or Elizabeth finally exacting her revenge.

This might have been a better book than audiobook

Look. I will read 1,000 pages of it it’s good, and I will hardly ever bail. I wanted to pull the rip cord on this MULTIPLE times. Jolene’s story arc took soooooooo long to get to the point. Twist at the end isn’t even that twisty. I’d hit fast forward 30 seconds 3-4 times when dragging — was always the same seen and action. regret taking it up, but did manage to finish it.

Twists and turns galore

Just when you think you know, you don't. Kept me guess until the very end. Characters could have had more depth but the story makes up where character and world details lacked. I had to take a break from listening with one hour left and couldn't wait to get back to it the next morning to come back to it. That last hour will keep your head spinning!

Not worth all the hype.

I heard great things about this book, I was disappointed from the beginning kept listening and felt the same when it ended.

It was fine.

I saw this on a couple Tik Tok pages saying it was phenomenal. It was an easy listen and entertaining, but nothing overly exciting.

Long investment

The characters were shallow. It was a long and drawn out story ending was anti-climatic would not recommend.

Too much self talk

Too much self conversation. Slow. Characters are whiney. No real breakdown as to what was happening with the character or if she was psychotic . No real resolution.

Great representation of self loathing and mental illness

waaay too predictable for me, even with the twist at the end. not gory enough based on the reviews I read
