With its twisty plot, secrets, and lies, the narrative keeps readers guessing as the two women try to manipulate things in order to keep their secrets safe. Readers are sure to find themselves turning pages as fast as possible just to find out what happens next.

Readers who enjoy psychological thrillers and mysteries are sure to enjoy this unputdownable tale with its surprising denouement that most will not expect.

Highly recommended.

I received a free review copy of this book through BookSirens, and I am voluntarily leaving this review. ( )

“She’s trying to torment me, I know. She wants me to break.”

James Caine’s writing style and ability for bringing a story to life are two things I love. It was the same with this book. Two different people’s points of view are used to tell the story of both the past and the present. I was constantly on the edge of my seat while reading this book. An absolute must read!

Thank you to Booksprout and the author for giving me the opportunity to read and review this book.
