I was intrigued by this story and how it is written. There were subtle clues that led you one way but then sent you another. It kept me gripped until nearly the end when it became apparent who was to blame. The ending disappointed slightly, and it lost a star for that reason.

I was disappointed by the books as I felt like it was very predictable at times. Plus, the ending felt like a genuine experience of daylight robbery.

I am really liking this author at the moment!! Kept me guessing for ages and I couldn’t accurately guess any of the twists and turns. Fun

This book started off as gripping and a page turner. However after the half way mark, it slowed down, and there was alot of dragging out on certain pages where I found myself skimming through. The ending was disappointing, although the twist for unexpected I would have preferred a stronger ending. I don't think it needed to be long, shorter chapters would have made for a compelling read throughout 

Did not love this book. Started off so good and strong! It then began to lose momentum around the halfway point and never picked up for me. I kept thinking how unrealistic the plot was and I didn’t actually like any of the characters. This was a bit drawn out and boring for me.

Didn't grab me. Bit pedestrian. Bit telling not showing.
