This book is absolutely everything I look for in a psychological thriller!
There are unreliable narrators, twisted narcissistic characters, and you never know who is telling the truth and if their hiding of the truth is to protect themselves or for more sinister reasons.
I liked the character of Lizzie and really felt for her throughout the book. She's in a tough place with her husband and having to deny her own dreams due to his poor choices. The Park Slope setting with the school parents and the different friendships is like being a voyeur into an elite life--again, we never know who is telling the truth about anything, which is what makes this book so compulsively readable. Not to mention that the murder takes place after a "key party"!
I have really liked the books I've read by this author and they continue to get better and better with each one.
