Vulgar language, child, abuse, domestic violence. Strong character development, but slow plot. Good suspense with twisted ending.

This book.. is phenominal. I could not believe what I was reading.

At times, I found it to be a bit confusing following characters - specifically the different detectives names. But the way everything ended up being intertwined was a wild ride.

I would NEVER have been able to predict the ending of this book. I am still recovering from the shock of what I read. As soon as things started unravelling, I could not put the book down. I got whiplash from trying to keep up with the turn of events.

Incredible writing and conclusion. Loved this book.

Loved both of the Broussard and Fourcade books! Anything New Orleans or Louisiana storylines.

When I started this I wasn't sure I liked it, but I trusted the author, and by the end I couldn't put it down!
