The Perfect Couple by Elin HilderbrandMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Summer in Nantucket. The setting is a glamorous ocean front mansion and the occasion is the wedding of Benji and Celeste. Friends and family are gathered for the event, but tragedy strikes the morning of the wedding and the local police are called in to investigate.
Everyone is harboring their own dark secret and as the story unfolds, we slowly discover the secrets and how they affect the other wedding guests.
In true Elin Hilderbrand fashion, each short chapter is devoted to a different character in the saga. In addition, the timeline is not linear, jumping from present day to several points in the past to fill in the backstory. However, each section is clearly identified with the character's name along with the date and time, so it's easy to keep on track.
This was an incredible book, both a romance and a mystery. Hilderbrand always immerses the reader in such a sense of place with all of her books. I'm very anxious to watch the Netflix streaming version of this book!
