Barbara is a skillful storyteller and thrives on weaving a mystery that will keep you captivated and engrossed. This psychological thriller plays mind games with you with all the twists and turns. I didn’t trust anyone and was second guessing everyone. Just as I thought something had been answered, I was left with more questions. While I had a hunch about one person that turned out to be correct; I can say I that I was clueless about all the rest of it. I do wish that we had gotten another chapter or epilogue with a future glimpse of Emily and Ethan. Overall, it’s an excellent story that I recommend to readers who love a good thriller. I voluntarily reviewed an Advanced Readers Copy of this book.

You're not paranoid if they really are out to get you. I thought of this quote as I read this book. Emily's world is crashing around her & who can she trust? I enjoyed the buildup of suspense in this book. There were a lot of suspects & a lot of layers to this story. I didn't know who she could believe or trust. I like the author's writing style. It's easy to read & the scenes are painted very clearly in my head. I found the ending to be satisfying. I received an advance copy from the author.
