I would not recommend this book to anyone. The religious interjections were strange and unnecessary. No grown man says "I don't believe in God, but if I did, I would definitely be going to hell." Just weird.

DNF I got this for cheap on the kindle store and glad I didn’t pay more than $1 for it. I’m glad I only used kindle points and didn’t fork over more money. This is trash. And tried to get into it twice. I really couldn’t keep track of the timelines and characters. These are the type of shitty books that make me want to stop reading books all together.
Stop with unnecessary point of view changes. Authors gotta actually work on their craft and stop having publishers greenlit this slush.

Loved the story, hated the writing style. Too many points of view and flashbacks and flash forwards to keep up with.. hard to get through but good resolution.

This is one of those thrillers where you know the most important details very early on. You know that a rich guy covered up a hit-and-run death, and you even know who he is. The rest of the book mostly concerns itself with whether he gets caught.
Personally, I like a little more mystery in a book like this. I don’t like to know more than the characters (some of them, anyway) about what’s going on. I’m not very invested in whether a character figures out what I already know. When you take out that little core of mystery, I just don’t find the result very compelling.
There are a couple of other twists in store, but they are mostly details that don’t change the overall shape of the crime.
The book itself is well-written, and I’ll be interested to read her books in the future.

This is the second book I read from this author & glad I did! This was a great book & took me for a loop. I definitely didn’t expect that twist. Logan needs to be in hell!

slow at first but a good story
I had a hard time caring about any of the characters in the beginning because the POV changed so often. The first 70% of the book could’ve gone a little faster (and some of it cut out) but the last 30% was fast moving and wrapped up pretty well. Lots of wisdom about what really matters in life.
