An unexpected mystery following the tragic death of his wife, what was she hiding? Turns out that dear Aaron had NO idea who his wife really was and I couldn't help but carry on the journey with him to find out WHO she was and WHAT she was up to! Her presence is haunting him every step of the way as he travels all over the east coast connecting the dots but in the end, who are we really haunting but ourselves? 
This thriller definitely keeps you on your toes and keeps you wanting. I did not like how the BIG mystery was resolved. It seemed so disconnected from the entire rest of the story and I definitely feel like it could have been done better using a character who we already knew was deeply intertwined. Honestly felt like a cop-out. The end of the last chapter WAS beautiful and wrapped up that plot line well. Overall I will be reading more Ronald Malfi BUT I'm glad this wasn't his first work that I read, otherwise it might have been my last.
