Book description:
A Saturday off-road outing leads to a burned-out car with a man's body inside: a young and successful lawyer found dead, with no known enemies.
Three women, all deeply connected in some way to the victim, are swept into the investigation, involving a post-WWII love affair, an embezzlement case, and a brilliant police detective. When the truth is revealed, secrets are exposed – they must all face a difficult, complex, and unexpected reality.
Almost Perfect is a light thriller, which does not require a thorough reading to trace the hidden details. You will find a sophisticated, intriguing story, variety in the narration, and many secondary stories (interesting in themselves), connecting to a harmonious overall picture. It has humanity and longing for warmth and love.
The writer sets her stories in the real world, where the smells, tastes and feelings are known and accessible to the reader. These make the book enjoyable, thrilling, and allow the reader to connect with the characters.
Review:
Almost Perfect kept me on my toes wondering who had killed the lawyer, Lior. Every time I or the characters had thought we figured out who the killer was, something else came up. Whether it was new evidence or an alibi.
Nili is convidenced that one of her friends did not kill the other friend's boyfriend. The one killed and the accused did have an affair a year or more ago. Relationships and friendships are tested. Nili must look for help in the investigator and her ex-husband to get answers.
Each time they come one step closer, new information comes up bringing them two steps back. Some questions are answered, but new questions arrive each time.
Tamar, Lior's girlfriend, goes to spend time with the father who had adopted her. She needs to get her mind off what happened and help him with what he's being accused of, which happens to be with the money that disappeared from his community.
Tamar hears her father's story, which happens to answer more questions that had been arising. She learns that the people she knows or had known are more closely related than she realized. She learns that those she had cared about had secrets they were hiding. Now she must choose to help someone and his family that she once loved or do what's right by the law and her friends.
