For a bride-to-be and her fiancé, secrets and lies make this a killer celebration in this psychological suspense.

Twist at the End!

Initially hard to get into for me, was not liking the sound of the voices but it did pick up. Otherwise, story was good and there is a twist at the end!

Surprise

Didn’t see that ending…that took me back .. like really…I didn’t like the ending

Loved Agent Castle’s character

All that build up for a flat ending. However kept me very entertained and engaged the whole time

enjoyed

I like the book. it was good. trying read more, listen whatever you call it escape. this book was good for that.

Kept me guessing!

Told from perspectives of Carrie & Andi, I was left with my guesses of who the bad guy was with these two voices on different sides.

I was guessing who the murderer was, who had the most secrets. I was on the edge of my seat right until the very end & the heartbreaking conclusion.

Narration was perfection!
