Beschreibung
An Amazon Charts and Washington Post bestseller.
It was supposed to be the perfect reunion: six university friends together again after twenty years. Host Ali finally has the life she always wanted, a career she can be proud of and a wonderful family with her college boyfriend, now husband. But that night her best friend makes an accusation so shocking that nothing will ever be the same again.
When Karen staggers in from the garden, bleeding and traumatised, she claims that she has been assaulted―by Ali’s husband, Mike. Ali must make a split-second decision: who should she believe? Her horrified husband, or her best friend? With Mike offering a very different version of events, Ali knows one of them is lying―but which? And why?
When the ensuing chaos forces her to re-examine the golden era the group shared at university, Ali realises there are darker memories too. Memories that have lain dormant for decades. Memories someone would kill to protect.

This book is a lot. If you don't find yourself uncomfortable, well, not sure what to tell you, but I was vaguely sick to my stomach for at least half the book. I didn't really like any of the characters, but I'm not sure that you're supposed to; the book centers around a group of people whose only common factor is that they were friends at Oxford, and that seems to define them a lot. I feel like if you met any of them, you'd know all about their educational background within five minutes. Also, they're all fairly terrible in some way or another (or three).
I've rarely read a book in which I despise every single character but this was definitely one. Some chapters were all whining and "Poor me", but pushing through was worth it as the ending saved at least some of the book. I would not read it again, neither recommend it, but if you stumble over it and use Kindle Unlimited it's not that you'd completely waste your time reading this.
