Synopsis

Diana Wolf likes to think she has it all: a rock-god husband, an empty nest, a wine cellar, and a dream home in the woods. Life is good. It has to be. But when she hires a cartographer, Kerry Perkins, to survey and map her estate in rural Tennessee, she pulls back a frayed corner of the lie that is her fairytale life. On his first night at Wolf Hollow, Kerry stumbles across a young girl's skeleton buried in the woods. But what really scares Diana is a familiar symbol carved into the girl’s skull: two wolves. A week later, the cops are digging in her backyard. Diana begins to question how good her life really is. How good of a man is her husband and how good a father? She’s not the only one with questions. Kerry Perkins can’t shake what he saw in the woods that night. He suspects that Diana recognized that symbol, that she lied to the police, that someone is watching him, and that whoever it is, they desperately want him to keep his mouth shut. His search for answers leads him to Pink, a deeply disturbed man obsessed with the Wolfs’ celebrity. Pink knows the family better than they know themselves—and he knows that the more he and Kerry dig, the more bones they will find. Told through the eyes of multiple narrators, none reliable, this is a story about parents, the lies they tell their children, and the lies they tell themselves.

I’m definitely in the minority with my 2 star rating but this story fell flat for me and I could not connect with any of the characters. DNF at 30%. Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for this early release in exchange for my review.......more

Goodreads review by Kristine on August 27, 2022

A very good book about very bad people. I must say, this was not my type of read per se, as it was a lot on the heavy side of the family trauma, abuse, serial murders of innocent people, violence and general depravity and denial. However, the writing is compelling, and heavy and drags you down with......more

Goodreads review by Melanie | on July 26, 2022

I was so intrigued by reading the synopsis that I knew I had to have this one. This is a debut book and It started off rather slow, and at times I found myself losing interest, but at the last 20% or so it seemed to pick up pace and I was more invested. I will say that I feel like the characters lac......more
