5.0

I was hooked from the 1st chapter! The writing style is fast, slick, and to the point, perfect for an edge of your seat thriller. The concept,
how do you catch a killer when it can jump between bodies?
and how it was laid out in 3 interconnected murder mysteries across the decades, was chilling and amazingly well done. Perfect for those who love thrillers/mysteries and the supernatural. 


 If violence/gore is not your thing, I’d steer clear of this book. There is a lot of death, and two child deaths that are brief but disturbing/sad. If you get intrusive thoughts, this book is probably not for you.
