adventurous dark mysterious tense medium-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? It's complicated
• Loveable characters? No
• Diverse cast of characters? No
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

There was too much going on in this book. There were so many story lines to create mystery and drama but it made it less interesting for me. I would have liked more of a character development at one point to get interested in the characters but that didn’t happen.

this one kind of fell flat. wasn’t thrilled, the mystery wasn’t shocking enough to keep me gripped. it was fast paced and solid read but just not my fav over all.

This book is what I refer to as a cork popper. While the last book I read took me weeks to finish, this one was done in less than 24 hours. I have loved Lutz's writing since the Spellman files series, but this is different. Darker. Not funny at all. And so, so, so, good. What would you do if you were running from a past you couldn't go back to? How many different identities would you take? What would you do to stay free? It's a fantastic read. Highly recommend.

What a ride! It grabs you from page one and does not let you go.
When thinking about the plot later, you may see a few blips in the story, but, oh, my, you won't care a whit either before or after. A success from first to last word.

This gave me a bit of Gone Girl vibes. It's a suitable thriller to read on vacation.
