WOW!... This is literally one of the best thrillers ever going... Seriously gave me the creeps... Told from so many different points of view but easy to keep up with the characters... I don't know how Claire does it but she's truly a talented writer... Knows just how to draw you in... I had a feel for how each character looked and felt it all felt so real and eeerie... Just couldn't put the book down... This really had it all and I was hooked... Was shocked rigid by the ending and then as you think it's all winding down there is just one more shock at the end that leaves you speechless... Can't recommend this book enough I guarantee you will love it and defo deserves 5 whole stars... Would give it more if I could and will be reading more of Claire's thrillers this is the 2nd one I've read and they was both so good 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🤗👍

Gripping, a great twist at the end.
