DEVOURED this book. Such an easy and fast read.
I don't dwell much on thrillers/mysteries because I like to sleep soundly at night š
This book has been sitting on my tbr for the longest time so I decided to finally read it to take a break from romance and now I can't wait to go back to my happily ever afters lol.
This has a satisfying ending. Has some loose ends that were not addressed. My mind was definitely bent after this but I will keep trying to read more of Freida's work.

- That ending was amazing of course there was a few plot holes but overall I really loved that ending excellently with that final twist in the epilogue š„° it was a 5 out of 5 star ending
- I like how the book switches back and forth between the present and the incident 11 years ago.
- I like how even though Josh is 10 years old he is not as naĆÆve as this mom.
- The book does a good job at making you sympathetic towards the killers in the beginning.
Disliked:
- The book was in 1st person P.O.V (This is a personal thing, honestly I think Iām just not used to reading books in first person š¤·āāļø)
- Brooke was just annoying at time
Quote: āthese men donāt look like criminalsā she saids as sheās working at a prison š¤¦š»āāļø - Josh at times doesnāt Talk like a 10 year old which I can let it go because I know how hard it is to write dialogue for kids at times.
Overall:
I think is I would have physically read this book instead of listen to the audiobook I would have enjoyed it more.
This is a good introduction to the mystery genre if your not used to reading mystery books. Honestly the ending is that best part of the book. I love how the epilogue is in a different P.O.V and answers one of my biggest question about a certain personās death.
Moderate: Death and Sexual content
Minor: Death of parent
