โ€œI donโ€™t think about the rich as individuals, but as a category. After all, thatโ€™s how they think of us.โ€

I have been alternating between the audio and physical book for this juicy family drama/mystery. So far, the dual timelines are woven seamlessly together, and the Capri setting is stunning. Right now Iโ€™m where the wild twists are starting to happen, and Iโ€™m looking forward to seeing how it all plays out.

๐—ฆ๐˜†๐—ป๐—ผ๐—ฝ๐˜€๐—ถ๐˜€: In 1992, Sarah Lingate is found dead below the cliffs of Capri, leaving behind her three-year-old daughter, Helen. Despite suspicions that the old-money Lingates are involved, Sarahโ€™s death is ruled an accident. And every year, the family returns to prove itโ€™s true. But on the thirtieth anniversary of Sarahโ€™s death, the Lingates arrive at the villa to find a surprise waiting for themโ€”the necklace Sarah was wearing the night she died.

Haunted by the specter of that night, the legendary Lingate family unity is pushed to a breaking point, and Helen seizes the opportunity. Enlisting the help of Lorna Moreno, a family assistant, the two plot their escape from Helenโ€™s paranoid, insular family. But when Lorna disappears and the investigation into Sarahโ€™s death is reopened, Helen has to confront the fact that everyone who was on Capri thirty years ago remains a suspectโ€”her controlling father, Richard; her rarely lucid aunt, Naomi; her distant uncle, Marcus; and their circle of friends, visitors, and staff. Even Lorna, her closest ally, may not be who she seems.

As long-hidden secrets about that night boil to surface, one thing becomes clear: Not everyone will leave the island alive.
