5.0

Lisa Jewell is a must-read for me, and her books keep me flipping pages without blinking because I NEED to know what happens next. This one is no different. The plot grips you and doesn't let go, with every chapter revealing a bit more tantalizing information that means you've got to read just one more chapter. This one has sequel potential too, with a few loose ends (who does the phone case belong to, for one).
