I've read several books by Sarah Pekkanen - some I liked and some I didn't - and I was pleasantly surprised by this one! It was a little slow to start, but I was quickly hooked on Stella's case and the Barclay family. I wasn't quite sure what direction the mystery aspect would take, but it was unexpected and shocking in the best way. I also loved that most of the chapters were pretty short; it allows for more suspense and desirability to keep flipping pages to find out what happens next, in my opinion!
