4By WhitmbenHard to put down yet dark and disturbing especially for caregivers of children.. prob wouldn’t have read it had I realized the psychological upheaval as a parent. My first book by this author, and I appreciated the writing. Written much better than most thriller/mysteries!Last pages
4By nicknametaffyDon’t put this book down until you read the Last Pages !A good read
4By AGRekoThe last plot twist was unnecessary and a bit forced. Other than that, a good bookA must read
5By Bgsierra1414Definitely kept me guessing throughout the whole book. I couldn’t stop reading lolOMG
5By JacobGodarSo amazing - literally couldn’t put it downIf I could give zero stars, I WOULD
1By _flynnannieI couldn’t wait to get this book over with. I’ve read all of Mary Kubica’s books and this one was by far the most long, drawn out and flat book of them all. The first 3/4 of it could have been rolled into two or three chapters and the last 1/4 was hurry up and get to the “plot twist.” I’m glad it’s over.Loved it!
5By Sherri1717Fast paced and unputdownable!Till the very last page
5By Emi+nemCouldn’t put it down. Every time I thought I knew who did it, I was wrong, and then, wrong again!
