Nice plot twist. Didn’t expect anything. I wanted to give it a 5 star, but for some reason I can’t. It’s not lacking in any area that I can communicate… it just feels empty towards the end.

A very interesting twist, I guess I should say twists. Enjoyed how it was split into parts and something new was revealed/focused on each time.

Very entertaining book for me.  I chose this audiobook for two reasons, first it was available immediately from the library and Julia Whelan was the narrator.  I knew nothing about this book and I have not ready any other books from this author duo.
After listening to this book, I will be looking for other books from Greer and Sarah.  Why?  I like a mystery suspense book that makes me question what is going on because a sentence or paragraph could move the story in multiple directions.  It leaves you wondering which direction the story is taking and how are the characters going to react.  
The plot twists in this book kept me engaged and moving forward.  The pace was good; the first section was slower then section two and three picked up momentum and clipped right along.
