“Everybody lies and everybody dies. Those are two of the only things you can be certain of in an uncertain world.”
Given the whiplash I experienced while reading this book, I think Alice Feeney should be named in my medical report! This book has been all over Bookstagram and it honestly was one of the twistiest books I’ve read in ages.
Eden and her husband Harrison have recently moved into Spyglass, a cliffside house in the small town of Hope Falls. Eden is an artist, drawn to painting pictures of the sea, and she’s having her very first exhibition at a local gallery. She’s nervous but she’s looking forward to meeting the residents of Hope Falls.
The morning before her exhibition, she goes for her usual jog. When she gets back home, her key doesn’t fit in the lock. A woman who resembles Eden answers the door, and insists that SHE is Eden. And Harrison backs the stranger up. What is happening?
I don’t want to give anything away here. (If you’ve not read this yet, go into it without reading the blurb or reviews.) This was an utterly wild story about mortality, revenge, regret, and family. So much is packed into the ending I had to reread it a few times, and there was lots more explaining than I liked, but I couldn’t believe how compelling this was.
