Twin sisters Marisa and Clare Stockton were sixteen when Clare’s body was found in Virginia’s James River. No arrests were made. Fourteen years later, Marisa’s friends and dedicated career as a photographer help her to cope with the open wound of the past.

A recent car crash has erased ten days of Marisa’s memories—a black hole leading up to the accident that’s left her disoriented.

Chloe is one of seven students at her DC-based college who are part of an unusual clinical study of psychopaths - students like herself who lack empathy and can’t comprehend emotions like fear or guilt. The study, led by a renowned psychologist, requires them to wear smart watches that track their moods and movements. When one of the students in the study is found murdered in the psychology building, a dangerous game of cat and mouse begins, and Chloe goes from hunter to prey.

Story4 out of 5 stars 20
Every Winter, the human population hibernates. Your name is Charlie Worthing, and it's your first season with the Winter Consuls, the committed but mildly unhinged group of misfits who are responsible for ensuring the hibernatory safe passage of the sleeping masses. You are investigating an outbreak of viral dreams which you dismiss as nonsense; nothing more than a quirky artifact borne of the sleeping mind. When the dreams start to kill people, it's unsettling. When you get the dreams, too, it's weird. When they start to come true, you begin to doubt your sanity.

a MUST read or listen
If you’re a fan of Marian Keyes, you must read/listen to this book. Fabulous characters that you become attached to. Fabulous story that comes to an amazing kaboom at a family supper. Woven carefully with individual memories and timelines. I’m not even finished but I had to encourage others to join this adventure of the Casey family. Pure fun.

My bookclub liked it more than i did....
a LOT of flipping between stories lines/characters....which was fine...I just couldn't get into it and care about the characters as much as I would have wanted....I kind of found them all sort of unlikeable...seemed long to me....and at the end i listened to it at 1.2x speed just to get through it.....

Confusing
There was some really good humour parts, but overall a lot of characters and because the narrator didn’t change her way of talking at all, it ended up pretty confusing.

Great Story about Real People with Real Struggles
It took a bit of time to sort out all the characters but once I did, they became real to me and I got caught up in their situations. I will miss them now that I've finished the book.

Amazing book, amazing narration
I knew almost nothing about this author or story when I began listening to the book and honestly I wouldn’t have it any other way. It’s easy to listen to, but it isn’t frivolous and it’s interesting while still being relatable. The author intertwined real life issues without you even realizing in a way that is extremely laudable.
I’m really looking forward to reading/listening to more of her work
