I adored this book. It was so unusual that the concept had me hooked from the start, but at the same time the writing was silky smooth and bled seamlessly from one couple's story into another. If you wanted, you could read an individual couple from start to finish by skipping to their designated chapters, but I preferred to read it as it was given to me, with suspense building to mini cliff-hangers at the end of each chapter as the focus shifted onto someone else.
I really enjoyed this read and am already recommending it far and wide. I'd like to thank the publishers for sending us a copy to review. We also have a review of [[The Passengers by John Marrs]].
If you like thrillers, then we would also recommend [[Before I Let You In by Jenny Blackhurst]] or [[Everything You Told Me by Lucy Dawson]] which look at the truth behind other kinds of relationships.
