The third in the murder mystery series, this reunites Lily Kintner with her acolyte, private detective Henry Kimball, as Lily helps an old college friend who suspects her husband is a serial killer. Like the previous books in the series, and in the rest of his novels Peter Swanson use of plotting is immaculate, throwing incredible twists that make the story go into a direction you don't expect. I loved coming back to the main characters, especially Lily who's a truly fascinating (unhinged and cold with her own sense of justice and loyal to her friends and family, definitely one of my favourite female characters in literature). The side characters were all compelling and fucked up in their own way.
A fast paged and intense mystery thriller, I hope the author will deliver more stories from this series.
