What can I say about this latest novel from Megan Miranda other than it’s pure gold? Truly, it’s along the lines of “Run and grab this one as fast as you can and be prepared to stay up way past your bedtime to finish it.”
Nic dreads returning to her hometown. But she can’t avoid it after being summoned by her brother. He needs her help to make arrangements for their aging father. Her plan is to get in and out as quickly as possible, get back to her life as she knows it. History, however, has other ideas…
You see, there’s a reason she left in such a hurry all those years ago. Was it the devastating disappearance of her best friend, Corinne? Or was it something else? Whatever the cause, it’s still there after all these years. Dark secrets don’t stay hidden forever. And once you start digging, well, it’s just a matter of time until everything is out in the open. Or maybe not.
Megan Miranda has written an outstanding thriller, making me want to read all of her others. Bonus points on originality for this one as the story is told in reverse. I wasn’t sure how that was going to work at first, but by the end it all came together. A must-read for fans of suspenseful, well-told stories!

Very interesting. I’m going to check it out now.
I loved the Seinfeld episode, “The Betrayal,” which was played in reverse as well. The gang goes to India for Sue Ellen Mishke’s wedding.
