5.0

This was a solid page turning thriller for me. I couldn't put it down. I normally have an easy time guessing twists in a story (be it book, video game, movie, etc.) but this really did keep me guessing up until the final chapter. It is a bit slow when it comes to revealing things to the reader, there aren't any real action packed or exciting moments. This is a story filled with dread and worry and you don't know who you can trust.

I also am a huge fan of Willingham's writing style! The way it is written really puts me the reader in Izzy's shoes.
