Professor Olivia Sweetman has worked hard to achieve the life of her dreams, with a high-flying career as a TV presenter and historian, three children, and a talented husband. Only one other person knows that Olivia's perfect life is in fact a desperate tangle of lies: Vivian Tester, the socially awkward, middle-aged housekeeper of a Sussex manor who found the Victorian diary of a pioneering female surgeon on which Olivia's new biography is based.

Fun game of cat and mouse

I really enjoyed the twisty mind games played by the two women in this book. Neither one innocent, both sympathetic to a degree. Atkins does a fantastic job juggling the relative morality of each woman, and making a case for each woman’s deceptive and bad behavior. I particularly enjoyed Atkins’ depiction of Olivia’s pathological lack of self awareness and Vivian’s stolid honesty. As a psychologist. I was fascinated with this deft and vivid portrayal of two very different psyches coming to combat with each other, and never straying from their essential natures. The ending was perfect (chef’s kiss). A great read! Also, the narrators of the audible edition were fabulous.

Tedious and underwhelming
Revisado: 08-26-20
By the end of this book, I couldn’t stand the nattering protagonist and was rooting for the “bad guy.” The plot twists were visible a mile away, and any suspense generated in the protagonist’s overheated and hormonal mind was quickly dissipated by tepid resolution. The self righteousness of the protagonist was nauseating. Yuck. Yuck.
