This is one of those books that tempted me to stay up way too late reading (I resisted...my sleeping super-powers are stronger!).
I really enjoyed it. It has lots of twists and turns. Every character seems to have a secret and it just never stops right until the very end.
I felt sorry for Anne. I thought Marco was a push over. Detective Rasbach just lets the crime solve itself.
The author was an English teacher turned lawyer. Two of my favorite kind of people to discuss books with!
Goodreads says:
It all started at a dinner party. . .
A domestic suspense debut about a young couple and their apparently friendly neighbors--a twisty, rollercoaster ride of lies, betrayal, and the secrets between husbands and wives. . .
Anne and Marco Conti seem to have it all--a loving relationship, a wonderful home, and their beautiful baby, Cora. But one night when they are at a dinner party next door, a terrible crime is committed. Suspicion immediately focuses on the parents. But the truth is a much more complicated story.
Inside the curtained house, an unsettling account of what actually happened unfolds. Detective Rasbach knows that the panicked couple is hiding something. Both Anne and Marco soon discover that the other is keeping secrets, secrets they've kept for years.
What follows is the nerve-racking unraveling of a family--a chilling tale of deception, duplicity, and unfaithfulness that will keep you breathless until the final shocking twist.
