What She Gave Away
What She Gave Away | Catharine Riggs
3 posts | 4 read | 1 to read
Revenge is anything but sweet in this twisty thriller about two women with very different lives locked in the same deadly game. Imagining the best way to destroy a person's happiness is Crystal Love's favorite game. Devious and unpolished, the plus-sized loan analyst couldn't be more out of place in her new town of Santa Barbara, where the beautifully manicured women never age and the ocean views stretch farther than the million-dollar lawns. And yet her eye for the power dynamics at play in this tony community is dead accurate. Kathi Wright, on the other hand, has made it her life's work to fit in with the plastic people who surround her. But when her husband--a wealthy bank president--dies suddenly, she's left with nothing. Then the FBI shows up, asking questions she can't answer and freezing assets she once took for granted. While Kathi struggles to outrun the mess caused by her husband's mysterious death, Crystal seems focused on her game. But why? And who are her targets? Spanning two years and told in Crystal's and Kathi's alternating voices, this tautly plotted novel reveals the power of choice and the price of revenge.

I listened to this on audiobook which I highly recommend against. The narration made me dislike all of the characters from the beginning. The story line is interesting but really handled poorly. It was difficult to like any of the characters which made continuing painful. One of the characters is so vapid it made me want to scream. Hopefully readers will enjoy this more than I did.
