I wasn’t quite sure what was happening or what was going to happen with this one. It’s told in the first person, and so we see everything through the eyes of Marie (I didn’t even seem to catch her name for the first couple of staves/ instalments). It was described as a thriller, but it seemed a bit ‘domestic drama’ to me. Don’t get me wrong, that’s not a bad thing if that’s what you enjoy, but I don’t think it’s for me. It took a bit of time to get to the crux of the story. It was all a bit long-winded, and I have to admit that I didn’t really enjoy my daily reading session with this one. There are plenty of people who did enjoy it though, so I think it just wasn’t to my taste.

Many thanks to the Pigeonhole for the opportunity to read this.
