Thank you to the publisher and Netgalley for an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
I was really looking forward to reading this book when I saw it was by Leslie Rule, Ann Rule's daughter. I wasn't disappointed it was a decent novel. I liked her writing style but at times I found parts dragged on.
This book has it all, murder, mystery, stalking, identity theft, cat-phishing and more! The story itself is absolutely terrifying as it can honestly happen to anyone. We are all constantly on social media, on the internet it is one of our main staples in our lives.
As the reader you do get very frustrated sometimes as to how the men in the book are literally so naïve but as the author notes they were masterfully manipulated by a pretty face and it was easy to see from the outside looking in, but not so much when you're neck deep in it. Shanna "Liz" Golyar is a very sick woman and the horrors she inflicted on the people she encountered is truly tragic.
I found the book to be descriptive and as previously mentioned, dragged on in spots but then the book ended so abruptly I felt as the reader we missed out at the end.
For her first true crime novel I think Ms. Rule did a good job and I look forward to reading more of this genre from her.
