Marie has always been good friends with Nina. When Nina is diagnosed with a terminal illness, she makes Marie promise to take care of her family. Marie is trying very hard to fulfill that promise, but with everyone around them with their own agenda, Marie isn't quite sure what to believe.

As people and events from their past creep up, Marie has to decide who she can trust. As you catch glimpses of the past and see how it melds in the future, you're left wondering who is keeping which secrets.

There are twists and turns in this story that definitely keep you guessing. It's not a fast-paced novel, but more of a slow burn instead. And while I found it a little predictable, it wasn't in an annoying way. It did make me want more from the book – the story in general. Everyone was bad and nobody was good, which made for a somewhat confusing storyline. Overall, while I enjoyed it, it wasn't your typical thriller.
