This book was very slow starting and then there were multiple twists in the end. Kept you guessing on who you thought the killer truly was. Wasn’t bad, but I would not recommend it.

Willingham describes anxiety women have in every day life regarding danger so well, and it was interesting to see the POV of the daughter of a serial killer. At least for me, I don't see a lot of books exploring how the family has to deal with the aftermath of a member's exposure as a killer and how the community turned on them.

Other than that, the story's fine. I wouldn't say it got me that hooked and the twist was just alright. Nothing that much to write home about.
