It’s not a bad book at all, but I was very unprepared for how rough this book was going to be. It felt a bit like tragedy/trauma porn for me and there were a lot of sexual assault/rape scenes that were a lot to get through. I also didn’t love the final act; it felt kind of far fetched and just wasn’t for me. 

Again, not a bad or poorly written book which is why I’ve given it a 3 but honestly personal enjoyment wise it was a 2 for me.

Geo falls in love with the bad boy and it all begins!

At the age of 16 the unthinkable was done and 14 years after it is dug up from her back yard. Dark secrets unravel. Geo life was a whirlwind … Whew this book takes you through it. What happens when your best friend remains are found a short distance from your childhood home? Who is to blame? What happened? What is the aftermath to this? 

What did I just read!!! I think my career has desensitized me… because I LOVED it… every bit of it! All the messed up inhumane things brought to life in this book. I’m for sure a thriller/(mystery) girly and I stayed on edge this whole book wondering what happens next. About 75% through the big plot twist became predictable, but still left me with my mouth wide open at the end (like what did I just read) !!!! I wish the author would have elaborated more on the joining at the end, but everything happened so fast that it left me with a blank stare like... oh no that’s it? I for sure could have used more cause the end got intense. My only complaint is, I wanted MORE!!  Enjoyed this read thoroughly. I did not want to put it down I was desperate to know what was next and so many things were uncovered.

Dark crime drama. Woman returns home after being in prison for a friend's murder. Definitely check content warnings.
