It was okay. Weird but I enjoyed it a little but it didn't seem to make me want to keep reading but I did finish it by audiobook just to get it done.

Enjoyed this first read. As an FBI agent with a serial killer father, Eve Hope will be an interesting character to explore.

I listened to this book on Hoopla and did not like the narration. The book was okay, but not my style.

I feel as though I've read a different book to everyone who has reviewed this one.  To be fair, I listened to the audiobook, and the narrator was atrocious. It was read robotically and in the same tone for the entire book. The only changes seemed to be when the narrator changed volume to speak extremely loudly at points throughout the book.  Saying that, the actual writing of the book was also terrible.  Every cliched saying was included, the main character was completely unlikeable and I found myself not caring what happened to her.

This gives a 'The Locked Door' feels but with more cliffhangers and questions being posed. 

Having a serial killer as a father when you're a Marine Corps isn't just the most shocking of all. It's when you turn to your serial killer father, to help you solve copycat crimes related to him that makes all ethical dillemas a step more problematic. 

Good story so far, can't wait to start the next book seeing that the murders keep comin'. 

How many more are out there? Was it really a copycat crime? Or was the father putting up some elaborate manipulation to give her daughter 'something to play with', as his own sick and twisted form of love?
