I've not read anything by the author before but I'm familiar with her. I had the impression she wrote chick lit or romance so clearly I've been misinformed. I enjoyed this book so much I definitely plan to read more of her work. I loved the title. I'm not sure why but I can picture someone with a sneering face chanting it. I raced through this book, desperate to read the next clue, feel confused and scratch my head again. This is the kind of thriller I love, full of twists and turns, ups and downs and misdirection. I thought about a dozen things were going on and was mostly wrong. Love it! I knew something sinister lurked beneath the cheesy happy façade of Simon and Daisy's marriage. This book is jammed with secrets and I loved the way the author gradually reveals each one. I will read more by the author.
