The promise you made.

Rose is depicted as a very very clever woman, a woman with gumption. An inspirational read. other than the murders of course, she is a well written force to be reckoned with.

It's 5 stars from me.

Thoroughly enjoyable

Three strong female characters with cleverly staged plot reveals to keep you guessing. The protagonist is nicely flawed.

Predictable

I love Lisa Jewel’s books and this came up as a recommendation as a similar read but I agree with the other reviewers who said it was predictable and that the characters were unlikable. I was bored. It wasn’t the worst book I’ve read (heard) but I wouldn’t recommend it.
I also hate any form of animal cruelty and it was unnecessary as it didn’t add anything to the story.

The narrator was good.
