I won this book in a Goodreads giveaway and I am so happy I won it! This was such a good book. 

This is a thriller/mystery. It features Lenny Marks, a 37-year-old school teacher with a mysterious past. She has some memories that she has repressed. Surrounding her mom, step father, grandmother, and the day her parents left her. 

Lenny continues to try to adapt in society. 

Lenny is definitely an interesting character. She is a little odd, but in a completely loveable way. 

Personally, this isn't the kind of book I normally read. However, after about halfway through I was hooked! The story picks up and I got increasingly invested in Lenny. About her past, what it meant and what her future holds. 

I would recommend this book to anyone!
