My review
My first book by this author and she truely blew me away. While I was reading it, people were talking to me (well, they told me they had to repeat twice what they were saying before being able to catch my attention) without me noticing. I took the book with me to the hairdresser and normally I can’t concentrate due to all the noise there, but with this story everything else was put on the back burner.
It’s no surprise that the past influences you for the rest of your life. Sometimes it are heaps of happy memories and the sad or bad ones don’t surface very often. For some people though it’s impossible to find some good ones between all the misery.
When this occurs, it’s time to find professional help and to try and learn to live your life the best you can. Is this enough though?
This story is captivating from the very start. There is never a dull moment. The author keeps throwing possible suspects at you and you really don’t know anymore if you are coming or going. I just love it.
This was a wonderful messing-with-your-head kind of book. I am definitely looking forward to more works of art by this author. 5 stars.
Thank you, Sarah A. Denzil, Bookouture and Netgalley.
