There is soooo much to be said about this book. I read this in between some of the other books I had committed to read and I'm so glad I was able to savor this through to the end. This is a book worth savoring while devouring the words that are presented.
I can't even begin to say how shocked I was through the last 50% of the book. There were so many twists and turns and WTF's. My jaw was wide open through several scenes. I can't help but love this book. I can't wait for more to be written to bring me back to this world.
Not only is there the Hallmark things of a thriller and suspense novel but they include a little romance to help ease out some of the gore.
