Review: A Good Marriage

A Good Marriage by Kimberly McCreight
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is a good solid mystery book with lots of twists, turns, and suspects. Both books deal with the idea that you know people, only to find out you don't know them at all.  I loved Reconstructing Amelia by the author and maybe my expectations were too high for this book. 

It was hard to find likable characters in this story, and I felt a bit like some of them were solely created to be perfectly set up to be red as herrings. The rich families behave with little or no integrity, EVERYONE has secrets, an annual sex party (oh boy!!) and money or lack of it drive this story.

That said, I did finish this book in two days so it kept me going. I just wish it had the same depth and heart that Reconstructing Amelia did.
