5.0 out of 5 stars No you don't have it figured out.

Writing is easy and fast-paced. The characters are well developed and complex, and the story is engaging from start to finish. I had heard McFadden's stories were unpredictable, so I kept looking for the surprise, and I still didn't figure it out.

Not my favorite Freida McFadden book. Too many things that happened in the story could never happen. Too far fetched.
Brooke was present when some murders happened when she was 17. Her boyfriend at the time was convicted. Fast forward 10 years and she is a nurse practitioner at…. The prison her former boyfriend is being held for those murders 10 years before. The prison HR department was too busy or to uncaring to do any background checks on Brooke. So now she is working in the prison where her ex boyfriend is housed on HER testimony and no one thinks to dive just a little in to her background? There weren’t Eros other inconsistencies but that was the main one. I will say typical of Freida McFadden’s books there were some twists and turns and the last chapter was a doozy!

I enjoy every one of Freida McFadden's books. However this one took me a minute to get into and it was a bit boring. However I'm so glad I finished because it was well worth the entire read. This is like my fifth book of hers so I was prepared for the plot twist but this one I didn't even see coming. I was guessing and still had it wrong. Well done!

I don’t think it was one of Freida’s best, but it was a quick read. There was great potential but I feel that it was more of a quick read with a taste of suspense, as opposed to thrill. I would have liked to hear more from Josh and Tim’s perspective. The ending did throw a bit of a nice curveball.

Such a great book. Easy to read and kept me on my toes pretty much the entire time. Fredas books always throw me for a loop and i can’t never guess what is going to happen which is why i love them so much.

Absolutely amazing!! I’ve always been a leisurely reader, never one to not put down a book because I just had to finish it the same day. This book I got for a vacation I was going on. After I started it, I could not stop!! I finished it so much faster than I expected and had to go out and buy another one of her books, while still on vacation because I just had to have another one of her styled books. It’s only been about 3 weeks. I’ve finished 3 of her books and own 3 more that I can’t wait to read!! She really leaves you on the edge of your seat the entire time, truly an amazingly talented writer, with imagery and vision unlike I’ve seen before. Unique in the best way, truly an amazing author. I can’t wait to continue reading her stuff! Thank you Freida McFadden for bringing back my love of books!!

I loved the twists, but man Brooke worked my nerves! Throughout the entire book, I was begging her to make rational decisions. Did she listen? Not one time. Talk about clueless ????????‍♀️ But I kept reading and I have not one regret!

In fact, I now love Freida and I’m headed to read yet another thriller from her!
