Cover Image: What Have We Done What Have We Done by Alex Finlay Pub Date: 07 Mar 2023 Review by Laurie W, Reviewer Last updated on 02 Mar 2023 My Recommendation When children from a group home full of abuse grow up, they each go on to different lives until their lives are put in danger. They think they know who and why but proving it will be difficult because they have a secret that could land them all in jail. When their good friend, a judge is found murdered they know he's just a start. Each one has something they'd like to hide from the others but in the end they know they must work together to find a killer. This is an exciting edge of your sit thriller and I enjoy the game of cat and mouse. I stayed up late to finish and was satisfied with the ending. The story has so many elements that come together to make a satisfying read.
Read Gamache book #1 and #2. Good reads, enjoyable. Just finished #3 The Cruelest Month. BLEW MY MIND!! I read half one night. Had to put it down to get some sleep. Life intervened and a week later I started reading the rest of the book. The second half of the book pulled me in and wouldn't let me go. I had to read to the end despite the late hour. And not speed reading either, I read each page carefully so I would not miss the nuances, the clues, the heart-breaking truth of Louise Penny's words. Now that I know the ending, I look forward to rereading the book and understanding the trail of clues left for the reader. LOVE this book!! Very glad that I read #1 and #2 first so that I had the history of the characters and location.
