Description

Keeping a secret from the past proves deadly for a group of old friends in this New York Times–bestselling thriller by the author of The Bad Sister.

A killer’s masterpiece will be painted in cold blood . . .

At first, Bridget Corrigan’s work with her twin brother’s senatorial campaign is an exciting distraction from the trauma of her messy divorce. But everything changes when Bridget is reminded of the secret she and Brad have been keeping since high school, a secret that could destroy the campaign—and their lives. Someone else knows what they did. Someone who’s been picking off the members of their little group one by one . . .

His job keeps him busy, but he loves every moment of it. Following them, photographing them, and immortalizing them on canvas. He knows exactly how they’ll look when the last breath is drawn, because he has planned out their deaths with perfect precision. And the best is yet to come: Bridget Corrigan. He has very special plans for her portrait—she just doesn’t know it yet . . .
With every “accident” that befalls the members of her old clique, Bridget feels danger edging closer to home. Yet uncovering the truth about the killer would mean revealing what really happened that horrible night years ago. She’ll have to find someone to trust—the question is, who? Because turning to the wrong person could be the last mistake she ever makes . . .

    Just finished reading it, and I was amazed at the amount of plot twists and turns that took place. I loved the creepy undertone, the feel that the main character always had someone watching her, but that's just me. It was a bit confusing at times, for instance, when the main character had flashbacks. While those explained the background of the story well, they seemed slightly misplaced (just my opinion).
