The title sets you up to second guess every bit of information you get, but I’m still not sure who/what to believe. If this really was a Netflix special, I totally would have watched it!

Great read, hooked from the start. Twisty and completely addictive. Was on the edge of my seat! 4.5 stars cause I was a little annoyed at the ending but that makes it a great book! Absolutely loved the acknowledgments at the end too!

This book was so good! I couldn't put it down. For readers looking for mysteries, murders and madness you have to pick this one. I loved it from page one to the end.
