The story suffers from some really silly choices by the protagonist and side characters, making it hard to put yourself in it. The twist at the end was visible a mile away and the explanation of it all seemed shoehorned in and a bit ridiculous. I was not a fan of McFadden's choice of writing this 30-something uear old registered nurse as havung the internal monologue style of a teen girl.
Despite all that, I can see how people could enjoy this. It includes the textbook thriller story beats that make a book "unputdownable" (the term McFadden's publicist tries to promote), but there are books with more heart on the market with which to spend your time.
