4.25 stars. I read this with my friend @jennifersirgey - We had heard it was super disturbing and after having read other Lisa Jewell books, we wanted to see what the hype was about. I did like the story the pace. And I think this is my favorite Lisa Jewell book thus far, but I was a little underwhelmed by the reveals. They were just laid out like a story and not very 'plot twisty'. Not that there is anything wrong with that -- it just felt different from other 'thrillers'. I actually loved the way the book ended and was happy with the characters decisions (mostly).
