Murder mystery plus religion and you get this crazy book that has parts of the plot loosely based on Warren Jeffs’ and the LDS in Utah. This book is creepy. It is interesting. It had lots of twists and turns. The killer isn’t who you might think. I really enjoyed this!

From the first five minutes of me starting this book, I was hooked and knew exactly how I wanted it to end. While I didn't get exactly what I wanted, I got pretty damn close. Great ploy twists, keeps you hooked the entire way through.
