This book is a medium-paced thriller with a multi-character POV that can be a bit overwhelming at the beginning of the story. I could see it was way deeper than just a missing person case. Every time I thought I figured something out a twist happened, and I didn’t. 

 

There’re so many twists and turns and so many well-kept secrets among the village people. It is one of those books where you wonder if the way people portrait themselves in public is who they are behind closed doors. If the perfection they show is there. 

 

Overall, this was a great story after it’s slow beginning, the character development was right on top, and the story kept me engaged until the end. The village has so many intrigues and creepy people waiting and hiding in the shadows. I recommend it to those who enjoys a book that will keep you guessing every single thing until the very end.
