My thoughts
The last book I read by this author was The Business Trip. It was a good one.
This story was good but the last part let me down. Part three. I suspected this was going to happen but to me it just didn't play out as smoothly as I had hoped. After the initial twist it did get better. I just think that one thing took away from this story. I know it was necessary but it just let me down. Also the part where a certain person got in trouble for murder and was innocent. That was just wrong. No matter what it was wrong.
I did not like Faith or Hope. The two sisters in this story. I like most all of the other characters but those two were petty and just not likable to be. Even as the weather girl Faith seemed to be so hateful to others. I did sympathize with her about the younger sister who was killed. That was horrible and made me dislike Hope all the more. If Faith would have been a kinder person I think I could have liked her. Yes she suffered from extreme anxiety but still she didn't have to be so mean and hateful to others. She was just to petty for me.
Then there was Olivia. I really liked her and her aunt and uncle. They were characters in themselves. They loved Faith. Thought she was the best. Olivia was an intern where Faith worked as the weather girl. She got all the inside info about her and shared it with her aunt.
Other people in this story were secondary and all were suspects in Faith's murder. It appears everyone or almost everyone had some bad experience with Faith. You'll even learn about some of her college antics. Not good people. Not good at all....
This was an intense thriller until it wasn't. At least for me. I just thought that one part of Part Three could have flowed smoother and been revealed in a better way. I have no idea how since I am not an author. But still it was just thrown in and then proceeded to tell what happened....
I loved the ending. I didn't see that coming at all. Though now I think I should have. I just didn't like Hope.....
Thank you St Martin's and Macmillan for the ARC.
