The description of this book reminds us all to "assume nothing"; so with that in mind I read through the first four chapters of the book. I loved the alternating POV between Nellie and Vanessa and in each of their narratives there has already been a hint of a crack in the veneer of the person we saw first. Should make for an interesting read. Not to mention the fact that Richard has plenty of potential to become a psychopath and some sort of wife collector. Definitely want to read this one when it is published.
