Just like the other Freida McFadden books I’ve read, I really enjoyed the fast pace nature of this story and how easy to read her writing style. 

I enjoy the character of Nora a lot and how the chapters move between past and present to get more darker details.
…even if it did end up being pretty redundant by the end which was a real shame
 

This book definitely relied more heavily on red herrings than some of her other books and didn’t get the same twist or shock factor that I’ve enjoyed in her previous. Whilst I didn’t predict the ending - which is always a big plus for me - it was a tad cliche and left me wanting more. 

Whilst I did enjoy this book, I don’t see myself picking it up over some of the other books I have read by her but still an enjoyable read overall.
