I liked the experience of reading this book. This book is heavily plot based. The story alternates chapters from Anna, Jack, and the killer. It keeps you on your toes, and I do think there is at least one plot twist that will make you surprised.
I would recommend this book if you like thrillers/mysteries. The characters aren't likable but it is a quick read because you want to know what happens next.

This story is told from 3 POVs: His (Jack's), Her's, and the truth (the mysterious killer).
I reread each POV that was the killer's 3 times each to make sure my guess of the killer was probably correct. It still wasn't. Alice Feeney did an excellent job at keeping you guessing.
This book gives me weird, sex cult Heather's vibes but grown up in a mystery thriller book. I honestly think that's the best way to describe this book.

While I liked reading the book, I wasn’t obsessed with the ending. When I was reading I was trying to figure out the big twist, and I feel like my prediction would’ve been a better story line. But I really didn’t see all the smaller tiny twists that seemed to happen each chapter and that’s why I loved reading it!
This was a really good one by Alice Feeney and she has slayed me once again!
