4.0

The first CRH book I read was The Nothing Man, and now this one.  I officially want to read everything by her.  While I rated both books 4 stars and not 5, they were the two most unique thrillers I've ever read, and that says a lot.
I thought I'd figured this one out twice.  I was wrong, twice.
