Title: Keep Your Friends Close
Author: Leah Konen
Publisher: G.P. Putnam’s Sons
Publication Date: February, 2024
Genre: Thriller
Pages: 384
My Rating: ★★★★☆
Keep Your Friends Close is a domestic thriller focused around Mary, recently separated from her wealthy husband, and Willa, con-artist extraordinaire.
When Mary’s husband winds up dead, Mary is the prime suspect. Can she work out who the killer is? And can she really trust her “friend”?
I enjoyed this, it was a quick and easy page turner. I didn’t really warm to any of the characters though. I found Mary annoyingly naive, and the story was quite predictable. However, I did sympathise with her struggles with the in laws, deceitful friends and seeing her son.
I would’ve preferred a few more twists and turns.
Thank you to NetGalley and publishers for my advanced copy.
