A gruesome murder brings to light many questions aside from "whodunit". The young man was killed only a couple of weeks after his mother died of seemingly natural causes. Was there possible foul play? The aunt of this man is grieving now for a nephew and a sister. She has plenty of other grief on her radar. The ex-husband of the aunt is also struggling. The woman who lived close to the young man and found his body is now reliving trauma from her past. And then there is the young woman with a violent past who spent the night with him. She claims her innocence but has a lot of "issues" of her own. Is it possible that none of these people is our murderer? Hawkins takes us through some twists and turns getting to know each character and how almost any of them could really be the killer. She has the ability to make you doubt everyone and wonder what else is at play even as she leads you down the path to the answer. Rosamund Pike is a perfect narrator.
