2.5 stars - Imo the title should have either been "Risk" or "Lie." The cover photo and title of the book are pretty misleading.

I've read all three of this author's books and my favorite thing about her suspense thrillers are not so much that you are on the edge of your seat about "whodunnit" because you pretty much know which characters are more twisted than the others. It is her wry humor in every book, the way she tells the story, the wit of the characters (twisted or not) is clever and I often find myself smiling even as people are getting murdered. (Maybe I'm twisted.)
In this story, we know Teddy has "issues." He's been caught in lies by more than one person. But is he the only one unhinged?
It's a multi-layered plot with underlying themes of parental expectations, what wealth can do to a person, and how teachers affect students lives.
Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for providing me another fun and twisted thriller by this author!

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for a copy of this twisted, cleverly written book!
I absolutely loved My Lovely Wife by this author and although this story plays out at a slower pace, it did not disappoint!
Beth, the main character, is on a strange but necessary road trip with her older brother and younger sister-siblings she hasn't exactly been close to over the past several years.
You can read the synopsis to find out the guts of the story. I'm here to tell you to pay attention since the pace may seem languid. It isn't. The author drops one-liner story-changing sentences at random times! Sentences that make you think, "Wow! I did not see that one coming!" And they completely change the direction of the story.
The dominos fall at a rapid pace at the end when Beth and her siblings finally reach their destination. It will keep you guessing right up to the last sentence!
