    My Review: What I love the most about this author is that you can never go wrong when you pick up one of her books. I am a few books shy of reading all of her books ever written and want to say that I have absolutely loved them all. There was not one single bad one in the bunch. Yes, some of them were better than others but all in all they were all so wonderful. I started reading this author many years with her second book Blink. I had no idea then on how much I would fall in love this author writings. She is definitely in my Top 10 Favorite Author List and is the Queen of Suspense in my opinion. I can’t wait to read more by this author. Thank you KL Slater for writing so many great books. In conclusion, the plot, the characters and all the twists in this book made this book an enjoyable read. I would definitely recommend it and happily give it 4 Hearts❤️❤️❤️❤️

    I have read several of K L Slater’s books and they were pretty good. However this one was painful to get through. It was boring and a slow read. If I could give it a zero I would.

    Pretty good, but no action until the end. The story is told by going back and forth between characters in the first person and also in and out of different time periods. By about halfway though it gets easier to follow cuz you are finally used to that. Overall the story ends up being interesting but it drags.

    Hard to keep up with the bouncing back and forth in time. Why not put all the past together then go into the present. Stopped reading 2/3 through story. Read last chapter & didn’t feel l missed much.
