I'm giving this one 5 stars, if not solely for the fact that a book hasn't compelled me to finish so quickly in ages, then because it is a twisty, unpredictable thriller. It might be too wild for some folks, but for this little lady who was in a slight reading slump, it was just the prescription I needed. The less that you know going in, the better, but there's no spoiling anything by informing you that the chapters are short and gripping, the action and pacing is relentless, and that the content is somewhat disturbing. While unnerving thrillers might not be for every reader, I appreciate how the author chose to focus more on alluding to certain aspects, rather than just making this book an all out blood bath.

For those who regularly read my reviews, you probably are aware of how little I am surprised by the "twists" in thrillers today. Here, I was completely fooled. There are plenty of clues dropped throughout, but they don't come together until the distinct moment that I went "OH SNAP" and everything clicked. Heather Chavez has woven together the ultimate suspenseful tale that is pure entertainment, and I will be waiting anxiously for her next novel. Highly recommended for all the readers who need a page turner that will keep them up late into the night.
