PositiveBooklistThe tentative friendship [Bettina] develops with Eugenia is part character expansion, part thesis statement in an attempt at commentary on solidarity between women, and adds to a twisty plot. The execution of this thriller finds more success in the latter, a success largely due to subtle authorial machinations that drag everyone’s motivations—including Bettina’s—into question. Even seasoned thriller readers will find the open-ended conclusion spine-tingling.
