This book was a doozy. It wasn’t my favorite thriller but it was entertaining. The bathroom scene with Ella was so awful to read but well done. I just don’t know how I feel about the book over all…

This really reminded me of The Buttery Garden by Dot Hutchison. It was very disturbing, but very good.

Ella survived a true nightmare- being kidnapped and held hostage by a serial rapist who uses social media to target and stalk his victims, who are specifically virgins. [BARF] Ella and Sarah are the only two to make it out alive and the FBI are now searching for the man responsible. Except Sarah has a secret and it soon becomes clear that there is more to the nightmare than anyone had imagined.
It's definitely a dark, at times difficult read, a 'ripped from the headlines' style thriller that also had hints of 'Room'. Enough twists and turns to keep the tension decently high throughout, and I was absolutely invested in seeing if the monster ever got caught and what Sarah's secret really was. 4☆
