APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
The murder of a woman’s toxic ex puts the spotlight on a modern-day coven in this witchy thriller. Ana Blacksmith is brunching with her buddies, commemorating her breakup from the sleazebag Paul, when she hears the news that he’s been killed—and she’s the main suspect. But things only get worse when one of the brunch crew is poisoned, forcing Ana and her sister, Vera, to use their witchy family legacy to unravel the whodunit and clear Ana’s name. Thriller author Lisa Unger understands perfectly how to craft an irresistible thriller, playing up the frictions between friends and sisters as well as the sexual tension between lovers past and present. Employing multiple POVs, each with a distinctive voice, she masterfully builds a multigenerational tale of herb lore, suspense, and female rage. With an exquisite full cast of talented narrators, Served Him Right had us completely under its spell.
