“A brilliant, breathless thriller that kept me guessing to the last shocking page.” - Erin Kelly, Sunday Times bestselling author of He Said/She Said
An Amazon Charts and Washington Post bestseller.
It was supposed to be the perfect reunion: six university friends together again after twenty years. Host Ali finally has the life she always wanted, a career she can be proud of and a wonderful family with her college boyfriend, now husband. But that night her best friend makes an accusation so shocking that nothing will ever be the same again.
When Karen staggers in from the garden, bleeding and traumatised, she claims that she has been assaulted - by Ali’s husband, Mike. Ali must make a split-second decision: who should she believe? Her horrified husband, or her best friend? With Mike offering a very different version of events, Ali knows one of them is lying - but which? And why?
When the ensuing chaos forces her to re-examine the golden era the group shared at university, Ali realises there are darker memories too. Memories that have lain dormant for decades. Memories someone would kill to protect.

But once her friend says she was SA, the MC starts parroting the cliché phrases she claimed to hate in the beginning. “She was drunk” “she’s a flirt” “She sleeps around anyway” etc, etc.
The accused was her husband, so some sort of denial that her own husband would SA her best friend is understandable, but the continuation of this hypocrisy through the WHOLE BOOK was super annoying. She kept making excuses for the r*pist, even after more things come to light, even after she has a talk with the friend who was SA. There is no growth on her end.
Anyway, I would definitely recommend caution for anyone reading this that is triggered by topics of SA. While the perpetrator does get caught, the constant invalidation of the survivor by her own friend could be very damaging for someone to read.
The narrator was pretty good, my only qualm is the voice she did for the 10 year old boy; she made him sound like a whiny 5 year old and it was a bit distracting whenever he was in the scene. Luckily, he wasn’t in the book much so it didn’t ruin it over all.
Engrossing story, infuriating characters
