This thriller was definitely a slow burn but it makes up over the course of the book. Written from three different perspectives while centering around Mia without hearing POV which I thought was interesting. If you have the patience, go ahead and read it. You won’t regret it.

A decent thriller but idk what to think about it. I was a bit disturbed and disappointed by the authors references to the black people = bad guys and the non-white area of town a bad area. It was blatant throughout. Would not fly at all if this book was published now

This is my one of my favourite true crime books that I’ve ever read. It is just wonderful. It’s so dark and goes so much into the emotional aspect not to mention the idea that both of the MC’s are f*cked up in their own ways. *Chef’s kiss*
