Told in multiple points of view and through different media, this one kept me turning the pages and feeling like I was listening in on the neighbours’ car crash life whilst making me seriously reconsider and think through different conceptions.
After several years of a “happy marriage”, Mel finally leaves Cole, who seems to be THE perfect guy. He then moves to the country side where he meets Lennie. A relationship starts to build; but is everything and everyone as they seem? Then, two young women go missing near Cole’s location whilst doing a hike for violence against women, so things start to rapidly unravel. The twist at the end is just brilliant, so do pick this one up.
This is definitely a “book club” book with much to discuss about modern feminism and the innate condition the opposite sex have concerning violence towards women.
