Aus der Balance

The pacing kept me guessing, but I'm curious about how Megan Abbott decided when to reveal key twists. Did she plan the suspense arcs from the start or let them evolve during writing?

Their actions often felt layered and unpredictable, which added to the mystery. I wonder if the characters' complexity was based on real experiences or pure imagination?

The environment added so much to the mood, making secrets feel even more claustrophobic. I'm curious whether the setting was inspired by a specific place or just a general atmosphere Abbott wanted to evoke.
