There’s also the requisite lonely, alcoholic woman, a character that has cropped up in pretty much every big mystery/thriller in recent memory ( The Girl on the Train and The Woman in the Window are both about lonely alcoholic women). To be fair, at this point, it’s pretty hard for any mystery to come up with plot twists that are entirely novel. I didn’t mind the slightly random/improbable plot elements, but it’s something to be aware of.Īlso, if you’ve read a lot of mysteries, a lot of the plot twists and devices used here will seen familiar. Of course, the downside of having so many plot twists is that in order to do so, the plot is very contrived and spins a bit wildly all over the place, especially in the second half.
