This is my first John Marrs book and oh my God it did not disappoint! It was gets-under-your-skin creepy and addictive from the very first page. 

 I couldn’t get enough! The twists were never ending and even though I had guessed the biggest twist I still enjoyed this book thoroughly! 

 This book is for anyone who can handle dark and I mean DARK stuff. Won’t give spoilers!

So I really was just annoyed with the first half of this book because of the male Author’s negative presentation of postpartum  depression (which annoyed me as a woman but I also can see value in the presentation of it in adding to the story line it was just frustrating). However the second half of the book as every thing came together it was a FREAKING ROLLER COASTER jerking me in every direction. SO MANY TWISTS and such a twisted and dark story.
