Review by Booklist Review
Popular self-help author Bryn Harper is recovering from a devastating car accident months earlier that resulted in the death of a coworker, but her efforts are complicated by recurring nightmares that she feels are warning her of something. She and her husband, Guy, are finally living under the same roof in a summer-vacation home, but there is trouble in paradise. Guy is growing impatient with her seemingly slow recovery and strange behavior, suggesting she may not know him as well as she thought. As she begins to question the foundation of their relationship, two local women are murdered, forcing Bryn to take an even harder look at her husband as she becomes a person of interest in the investigations. White weaves a story that is mesmerizing and thrilling as Bryn races to clear her own name and unravel the secrets about her marriage. Mystery lovers will be well served with this novel, as it grabs the reader instantly and can be devoured in one afternoon.--Rasak, Carrie Copyright 2017 Booklist

Review by Publisher's Weekly Review
In this solid psychological thriller from bestseller White (The Wrong Man), Bryn Harper, a successful New York City-based self-help author, has barely been able to function since a fiery car accident killed a colleague and left her badly injured. Haunted by nightmares filled with fire, Bryn struggles to remember what caused the accident. Bryn and her husband, Guy Carrington, the head of development for the Saratoga, N.Y., opera, had a commuter marriage before the accident. Now they're together in Saratoga, where Bryn hopes a dinner party that Guy has arranged will help her snap out of her lethargy. But Bryn soon runs into trouble with Eve Blazer, a flirtatious caterer, over missing money and a box of burnt matches-a nasty reminder of the car crash. When Eve is murdered, Bryn becomes a suspect. As Bryn struggles to clear her name, she realizes that Guy is not the man she thought he was. White keeps the suspense high to the end, though some readers may find the murder motive a stretch.
