Dark domestic suspense with a twist – perfect for fans of Ruth Ware and C. J. Tudor
Claire lives in a beautiful barn with her husband and son. Her husband runs a succesful vet clinc in the village and Claire has spent her life looking after Joe. Now Joe is older she has decided she needs to leave, taking Joe with her - but not is all as it seems as she tries to flee & learns more about Duncans life.
Magie was unexpected. It was full of twists and turns. I honestly didnt know what was going on (obviously i could follow the narrative) but i felt like it was so shocking i had to consider if i had focused on every single word i had read. It was brilliant, it really drew me in as a reader and because it shocked me so much, it really worked.
We follow Claire as she prepares to leave Duncan with Joe beside her. I was never sure if the characters were reliable or not and i was certainly questioning everything. This was creepy, slightly spooky and tense to a reader that been said, i certainly enjoyed these feelings it evoked in me as we started to follow their tales and discover the lies they had all told.
One to pick up and give a chance.
