Goodreads Synopsis: In this thriller from Alex Finlay, What Have We Done is a tale about the lives we leave behind and the secrets we carry with us forever. A stay-at-home mom with a past. A has-been rock star with a habit. A reality TV producer with a debt. Three disparate lives. One deadly secret. Twenty five years ago, Jenna, Donnie, and Nico were the best of friends, having forged a bond through the abuse and neglect they endured as residents of Savior House, a group home for parentless teens. When the home was shut down―after the disappearance of several kids―the three were split up. Though the trauma of their childhood has never left them, each went on to live accomplished―if troubled―lives. They haven’t seen one another since they were teens but now are reunited for a single haunting reason: someone is trying to kill them. To survive, the group will have to revisit the nightmares of their childhoods and confront their shared past―a past that holds the secret to why someone wants them dead. It’s a reunion none of them asked for . . . or wanted. But it may be the only way to save all their lives. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/60784578-what-have-we-done Thank you to Alex Finlay, Minotaur Books-St. Martin's Press, and NetGalley for providing me with an advance ebook copy of What Have We Done for me to read and review. Whew, what a wild ride of a mystery-thriller! This story was crafted so beautifully using multiple points of view and multiple timelines that it kept me twisting and turning all the way to the end. There was constant switching between perspectives which I found sometimes slowed the story down. The number of very diverse characters kept each point of view so unique and interesting with each person playing a role much different than you might first expect. This is the first book by Finlay that I have read and I will definitely be reading more. His writing style is relatable and truly enjoyable. 4 Stars!
