Another amazing book from Freida! I just couldn’t put it down and had to keep reading to find out what happened. Brooke gets a job at a prison and has to remember the three rules of not telling people personal information, not getting too friendly with inmates and to treat all prisoners with respect. However, what the staff at the prison don’t know is that Brooke knows someone who is incarcerated there (Shane) as he is her ex boyfriend from all those years ago - thus meaning she’s already broken a rule! 
I thought I’d figured it out early on but it turns out there were more people involved than first thought. I loved the suspense in every chapter as it kept you guessing who was involved with the past crimes. But the twists just keep coming and the more that unravelled, the more shocked I became. Honestly loved this book so much hence why I’ve read it so quick, it really kept me hooked and trying to guess what happened next. 
100% recommend!!
