Summary

Brought to you by Penguin.

An utterly addictive and twisty thriller, full of dark family secrets and deadly stakes. Perfect for fans of One of Us Is Lying and Knives Out.

She came from nothing.

Avery has a plan: keep her head down, work hard for a better future. Then an eccentric billionaire dies, leaving her almost his entire fortune. And no one, least of all Avery, knows why.

They had everything.

Now she must move into the mansion she's inherited. It's filled with secrets and codes and the old man's surviving relatives - a family hell-bent on discovering why Avery got 'their' money.

Now there's only one rule: winner takes all.

Soon she is caught in a deadly game that everyone in this strange family is playing. But just how far will they go to keep their fortune?

Welll it was not bad

Not really impressed, but I could see myself picking up the sequel eventually. Unless I forget all about it

Not for me

The short chapters with cliff hangers at the end kept me going although I didn't find the story or the characters particularly engaging.

good stoey

difficult to keep my place in the story when listening at night. The countdown didn't stop the story playing. Bookmarks didn't work as expected.

Just what I needed

I knew this book was not going to be some sort of masterpiece. I had already guessed that the writing would be cheap. But the whole topic on riddles, mysteries and entitled rich kids sparked my interest. Overall, it was just as I expected it to be. It wasn’t disappointing to me because I hadn’t expected much from the beginning. And yet I don’t regret having read it. I think it’s just what I needed at the moment. It’s an easy read, and kept my attention. It actually got me out of my reading slump and I’m immediately starting the next book!
