Perfect for you if...
- You enjoy psychological thrillers where the victim's hidden past is just as important as who killed them.
- You're drawn to stories about ambitious women in high-pressure careers and the costs of success.
- You appreciate unreliable narratives and plots that shift perspective to reveal new truths.
Maybe not for you if...
- You prefer straightforward whodunits with a clear detective and a tidy solution by the final chapter.
- You're looking for a cosy mystery or something light to read by the pool.
- You want a book focused primarily on the killer's psychology rather than the victim's life.
