Oh my goodness….what a book! Mind blowing and mind twisting. You won’t see the ending coming. I read this book for book club and was amazed by how much I loved it. This psychological thriller is a must read for anyone who enjoys being on the edge of their seat. It starts slow but then picks up fast for an ending to beat all endings!
