And that isn’t her darkest secret.Ī Mystery That Will Keep You Turning Pages You’d never know from Theresa’s pristine white carpets that her dirty laundry is thrown all over her bedroom. Even Finlay’s ex-husband and his fiancée, Theresa, while not as likable as the rest of the cast, are layered with secrets and quarks. Finlay’s sister, Georgia, who works as a cop, doesn’t have children, hasn’t been on a date in 10 years, and is calm and collected, serving as a stark contrast to Finlay herself. Finlay’s daughter, Delia, has some of the funniest lines of the book, coming out with brutally honest observations and questions as 4-year-olds are known to do. And she’s always there to commiserate or celebrate, depending on the day, with takeout and a bottle of wine. Finlay’s nanny, Vero, may just do an even better job of making the best of unfortunate circumstances.
Every time life throws something at Finlay, she handles it with care and a healthy dose of humor.Īdditionally, Cosimano has populated Finlay’s world with characters who are just as interesting. Her nanny is trying to run off with her favorite pan? They’ll work it out while sharing the bourbon she was also going to take. Her ex-husband fires her nanny? She’ll deliver their son to him with a very full diaper. Her 4-year-old daughter cuts her own hair and wants to put it back together with duct tape? Sure. Yet despite everything she is dealing with, Finlay brings such a lighthearted attitude to her struggles. She’s funny and honest in the way that I wish we all could be: She’s not afraid to admit that yes, her life is a mess, and no, she really doesn’t have it all together. And before she knows it, Finlay is tangled up in a murder investigation.Ī post shared by Aviva D | Bookstagram| NJ You’ll Root For-Or Againstįinlay is the kind of character I want to be my friend.
