This was one of those disturbing novels where most of the characters miss the clues, make assumptions and therefore act accordingly. When Maggie marries Nico, her sister-in-law Lara unfortunately comes across as a cold, buttoned-up woman, not interested in becoming friends with Maggie. Outgoing Maggie feels rebuffed; however, she really warms up to charismatic brother-in-law, the handsome Massimo.
This novel really underscores the truth that the only people who know what really goes on in a marriage are those inside it. Secrets abound, and I really don’t want to give anything away here, so I’ll simply say that I really liked this novel. The characters were well-developed and likeable, the story was interesting and I kept turning those pages. I highly recommend this book. Well done Fisher!
