Take Me Apart by Sara Sligar
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
This is a thrilling story told with a dual timeline from the POV of Kate, an archivist hired for the summer and her subject, Miranda, a successful artist who suffered a mysterious death. Miranda's son Theo hired Kate to work in his home going through his parents' things and getting it ready for auction. Through her work, Kate becomes engrossed in the reasons behind Miranda's death and uses the clues that she finds in the home, including Miranda's own words. This sets up a mystery that was never fully elucidated at the time of her death. It is rich in the family dynamics, mental health issues, physical and mental abuse, what we might do for the ones we love and ourselves, and relationships.
This is an intriguing thriller that checks a lot of boxes.
Highly recommended read.
Thank you for the early copy.
