Woah this novel was awesome! So dark, twisty, and (at times) cray cray! I got drawn into the story rather quickly and it just launched forward quickly and never let me go. I loved the format of the story where it switched from the present day to the previous week, to years ago (in diary form) because it gave away little bits of the story at a time, but held the big twists and secrets in until the end and kept you guessing all along the way. 

This book was so twisty, right up to the bitter end and I loved it! I kept thinking I had it figured out, and then I was totally wrong. 

This was a wonderful psychological suspense novel and I will certainly be checking out more of Alice Feeney's work!
