There's something that feels so relentlessly oppressive about the way this book progresses. While it can work in favor of the story, it also comes from feeling like I was reading parts of the story I had already read as Andrea turned over Girl, Forgotten's central mystery in her head. That's obviously representative of what it's like to have a case like this gnaw a hole in your brain. Especially when you are unable to solve it despite feeling so close to the answers. That just doesn't always translate well to storytelling, at least not in this case.

This is a slow burn whodunnit that kept me guessing right to the end! I enjoyed the police procedural aspects of the book and learning more about the US Marshals. While it was slow to start, the ending was thrilling. I enjoyed Slaughter's writing and was particularly impressed by the character development. I look forward to reading more about Andrea Oliver!

Absolutely HATED 90% of the people in the story. Awful, horrible people to someone they called friend - makes me think of how much of this mindset still exists today.
