Interesting storyline but becomes somewhat predictable by the middle of the book. Not exactly a suspense read. But still a decent enough read. Not bad but not extraordinary.

This book tells of a mother who has not gotten over the death of her teenage daughter and after 10 years she meets a child who looks just like her missing daughter. There are multiple POVs. I wish each chapter started with the name of the character that was speaking. I'm not a huge fan of romance novels and this book spent a lot of time developing a relationship.  The ending felt rush and predictable. It was entertaining read and I finished in one sitting.

I liked the writing and the plot a lot, though I'm more fond of a thriller where you don't find out who the culprit is until quite late on. I liked the twist with Floyd, though I always disliked him as a character. Lisa Jewell is great at creating tension and suspense and I look forward to reading more of her books.
