My god, this was ridiculous.
I guessed what was going to at 8% but felt intrigued enough to continue but it soon unraveled into absolute nonsense. I will summarise....
- These girls never got on and have kept hold of their petty differences even though they're in their 30s.
- They don't like each other, but get together at the overseas home of one sister for a jolly holiday.
- Their mother falls on the patio and bleeds from the head, but they don't check if she's okay, they assume she's dead and GO ON THE RUN (barely a spoiler as it happens so early).
- They stay places, run away, drive, stop a shops to get coffee and repeat for 70% of the book.
- They meet random suspicious people, things happen (won't spoil).
- Police are looking for them, chapters are rinse and repeat.
- Whilst on the run remember, they still have petty arguments, like one stealing the other's boyfriend years ago. Really? Ugh.
- Turns out what I suspected at 8% was in fact correct. Yay me.
