Phenomenal plot and an intriguing storyline. I appreciate when a book doesn't give away the ending at the beginning, and this one held the end right until the final minutes. knocked off half a point, as the precipice of the storyline left me with a few weird questions (it happened in an eldercare parking lot and NOT ONE PERSON NOTICED???), but other than that, solid work.
