My first Freida McFadden book and I'm looking forward to more!
A fairly fast-paced read with short, digestible chapters that made me want to read "just one more."
I did predict the "twist" fairly early on but I wasn't necessarily disappointed when it was revealed. It was still very suspenseful, and I loved the switching POVs, with interlaced police interviews.

This book started with Erika's interview with a police and how she admitted of killing someone. This part for me doesn't make sense after finishing the book. However, I admit this made me curious to read more.
At first it's just about Erika's happy family and how she felt her favourite child is Liam but she also knows what he's capable of. The first parts show how nice Liam is - how good he is at everything school, how nice he is to his parents, sibling, teachers, just almost everyone but Erika knows what Liam had done in the past that makes her question Liam's action.
Then the story slowly shows what Liam had done and how he was diagnosed as a Sociopath - a person incapable of feelings. Erika always question Liam's kind action as acting. Some of the people who knows Liam thought he's a phony, a fake and how they are scared of him of what he is capable of doing.
Then a time came when Olivia disappeared and everyone accused Liam of doing it. I even thought he did since the story is all about him but the book would be boring if he really did it. I am just glad the assailant is different. It was interesting how things turned out it's exciting!
The end part is a cliffhanger. I actually love it since it made me think if Liam is happy because he did it?! Like whaaatt?? I am actually amaze and of course I feel bad for Erika since she's definitely shocked and confuse.
Anyway I would recommend this book to anyone who likes Psychological thriller or someone who wants to try.
