Comparing this to the first two in the series, I think it's the weakest but I'll admit that the last 100 pages had me hooked.

The premise to start felt solid, then I felt we jumped the shark a bit, but I was pleasantly surprised how Jackson roped me back in.

An up and down thriller for mystery buffs and true crime girlies!

4.0

I didn’t enjoy the second half of the book as much because the whole story pretty much took a 180 but the first part was a tense and I was genuinely scared for Pip in many situations. 

I didn’t like the second part because everything that happens it because she thinks she cannot trust the police and by setting up the whole “How to get away with murder” thing. I also thought Jason being DT was pretty predictable from the start. I was still scared shitless for Pip.

I really like this installment. It starts of slow with Pip dealing with her trauma and starting to suspect she is being stalked; this part is a little jarring as it's very heavy and repetitive, but near the middle, the book speeds up and damn... It is the perfect circular ending to this series.

I was wondering what could possible happen after

Pip escapes from Jason

around the middle of the book but I was pleasantly surprised.
