OH MY GOD. This is the best thriller I've read since Pieces of Her by Karin Slaughter!!! I can't believe I haven't read Lisa Jewell before!

Love that there is a second book because I want to see what happens! I was really sucked in and loved the twists and turns of this disturbing "family" situation. Very well written!

I listened to the audiobook and read along at the same time. I especially enjoyed the prose writing, how well the words flowed, and also the narration voices on the audio. I will definitely start reading the sequel to this book. My favorite character is Henry because there are so many sides to him. I’d like that the voices alternated as well as the time to eventually all come together. This is the second book I’ve read by this author, but I will certainly read more from her. This was a very fast read one of the better thrillers I read this year..
