Another win from Lucinda!! Wow this book - obviously I couldn’t put it down - read it in 1 day! Such a fantastic, suspenseful thriller, like Ms Berry is well known for. This one includes autism representation, which is beautifully done, speaking as a mom of a 15-year old boy with autism. Though my son is extremely high functioning compared to sweet Mason in the book, I absolute love how Lucinda explains and educates on autism as she weaves this amazing story. Love it, love it, LOVE IT!!!!

Wow. One very interesting perspective about the evil that lurks within some people. I ripped through this in a matter of days. It was a great, page-turning read. My first Lucinda Berry book (I think), and I'll be back for more.

I didn’t love the ending. So many unanswered questions.
