3.69 AVERAGE


I'm not really good at making reviews, but in my opinion this good is super awesome! I took less than 2 weeks to finish this suspense book. This is also one of the reasons why I'm kinda addicted to romantic-suspense novels. I recommend this! Shock it doesn't even get 4 stars. Amazing.

I read this book years ago, pre-2011 when I started using Goodreads. I usually don’t have difficulty rereading a book, but this was awful. I’ve probably stopped and started reading this book again dozens of times over the past year. That’s on me though, not the writing. It’s an in-depth tale with lots of layers and twists and turns.

A twisty crime thriller reminiscent of sharp objects. I thought the story was good but the story telling was just okay. Entertaining enough, though I would be careful to whom I would recommend it due to the gruesome nature of the subject matter.

Loved it

My first J. T. Ellison book- loved it!
I’ll be back for more.

The only thing I found confusing (and this is probably just me) one set of twins would’ve been enough (second generation could’ve just been siblings)

I loved the chemistry between Taylor and Baldwin.

I picked this one up based on a list of best horror / action novels. Obviously whoever wrote that list is a toddler. Scary? Nope. In depth characters? Nope. Original storyline? Nope. I gave it stars as I did finish the book to the end, but do not think ill be picking up any more novels by this author.
