The twists and turns just never stop in this fast paced thriller. At first, you get caught up in the mystery of it all - I mean, who can resist asking "whodunit"? But then the book transforms.

If you're anything like me, you start to pick up clues. You think to yourself, ah I know where this book is going. He's good and she's bad and this is how it'll end. And then CRACK, this twist shows up. And then BOOM, here comes another.

I honestly found myself in complete and utter shock right up until the first last paragraph. 

A quick and enthralling read. A bit gory, if that's not your thing. But, otherwise, it's nearly impossible to put this one down once you get started! Will recommend over and over!

i did not think i would enjoy this as much as i did. the characters were interesting and semi-flushed out (especially for a thriller). the plot was interesting, the twists and turns kept me guessing, and it was truly thrilling. i thought this was great to read in the winter.
