The Guest: A Novel

This domestic thriller was enjoyable. There were lots of mysteries to solve. By the end, though, there was nothing believable about this story. I know, it's fiction. But I enjoy domestic thrillers because they are realistic, at least to a certain degree.

A friend breaks up with her husband and overstays her welcome living with another couple. Lots of twists and turns in the story.

A twisty and turning story, some things could be guessed and the author leads you through one way and then the next. I didn’t guess the actual ending which was a nice surprise but made total sense. In some ways not believable and there are still a few loose ends I don’t think were fully explained and some bits perhaps unnecessary and sad (the death of a local boy early on in the book). I liked the short chapters and flew through it, I really enjoy the style of writing from this author and the twists and turns.

so many lies and twists....

Far fetched
