A vigilant FMC tries to avenge her sister's situation that takes unexpected turns, ending in multiple murders; turning her into a serial killer. 

Pick it if you want to read an extraordinaire FMC tackling abusive issues in a way that needs to be done. 

There are few books I just picked for the title, this one comes under that category. As a huge fan of books that have a similar story line, I was so excited to read this. And it didn't disappoint me. 

Books like these have some unimaginable power to make my heart ache & love the FMC fiercely. 

Millie works in frame shops, but that's not what defines her life. It's her "Message M" service that she runs out of guilt (though she doesn't need to feel that, but I can understand where she is feeling those emotions from). It's not as surprising the encounter she faces in each situation, I'm sure to readers either one of them will be related even in today's era (which is  really sad).

One night, an expected situation leads her into an unexpected path; from which her spear of killing starts. Initially she is determined to find the person responsible for Katie's situation, the journey she takes leads to different circumstances where woman are affected cruely; that quickly escalates to murders disguised as suicides.

She even questions herself in every thing she does, yet before she convinces me through her words; I ended up standing up for her in my mind subconsciously.

I loved her so I wanted her to have a better life than the one she was living. So when James came into the picture, I really thought maybe this is what will make her stop things. But the twist was something else which I definitely didn't expect to see. Though I felt bad for him. I'm a sucker for happy ends for the people I love, so though Millie found that happiness somehow (not stereotyping) 

Every female in this story is a victim in their own way. Maybe including the ones reading this one.

Nina, everyone deserves someone like her. She just had my respect & love through the last few pages. Friendships like these pull my heart strings & make my eyes shed tears.
