Will is 10 years into his life sentence for his crimes as "The Canal Killer" when Gardaí suspect that a young girl found in the canal is the work of a copycat.
Alison has spent 10 years building a life for herself in the Netherlands and trying desperately to forget about the life she left behind when she receives a request to return home to help with the investigation.
Catherine Ryan Howard did an excellent job with this psychological thriller. Told from different points of view over dual timelines everyone's a suspect as the story unfolds.
The tension builds and builds throughout the book making it unputdownable as you near the end and it all starts to fall into place.
I really enjoyed this book, it ticked all the boxes for me!

This book was pretty descriptive for a thriller but i liked it! However it was pretty slow-paced and all the inner dialogue and descriptions kinda made it hard to read.
The way the book ended and the ending itself was pretty intriguing!! But overall this book didn’t interest me as much as i thought it would, maybe im not the target audience for this book and the way it’s written
