Samantha Lee Howe wrote the book the movie is based from which has the same name along with the screenplay apparently even though she is not credited for it.

The writer specialty is Thrillers and claims it is based from a true story which I am still trying to find out what actual story. Either way it hit a nerve especially with women.

It did have some twists that I did not expect along the way and who doesn't like seeing the wealthy having to bicker?

Worth the read or the watch especially if you enjoyed the book.

I saw the 9.1 stars (38 people) read all the rave reviews and then found out that most of the 10 stars were one review writers on IMDb. The reviews even sounded alike which was my first clue and why I looked. The other reviews seemed honest, so I think I jinxed myself and expected WAY too much of this movie.

First off - it has a lot gratuitous sex in it. I'm not a prude, but tossing in sex scenes on a formulaic schedule, ruins the flow of the thing.

The story is "second verse same as the first". You have seen this before, BUT it was well done by some really good actors.

I added a star for the supporting cast: Joseph Marcell and Nina Wadia. They were, and always are, awesome, no matter what parts they are playing.

Otherwise, 5 stars on a good day. I wish I had read a good book instead.

I agree with the "Meh" author from July 2022. I have absolutely no idea how most reviewers rated this movie a 10. Or 5+ It's a LIFETIME movie, at best and Lifetime is not my go-to channel to watch.

So ... married woman has an affair. He disappears and is presumed deceased, perhaps non-existent. Nope! He exists, then doesn't. Someone is murdered by a mysterious person in black and that event weirdly ties in with the missing lover and a stolen item. I figured out the ending at this point, but that couldn't be THAT obvious with all the 10s. That's all I'll give away. When it ends, you won't be too surprised. What's surprising is the characters' backstories change or are added mid-production. Then all the crazy is tied up at the end in one-big sloppy giftwrapping.

Regardless, it will keep you at the edge of your seat because you'll keep thinking "what has this to do with this story and why?"
