Mariam Salahudeen ，

The plot is similar to other thrillers but I didnt see that last plot twist coming！ I like the main character and her flaws。 Her past was quite disturbing since it contained child sexual abuse。。

Not a bad read 。 Narrative doesn't flow easily in parts 。 Can't say I'll be rushing to read more by this author 。 Not a bad read 。 Narrative doesn't flow easily in parts 。 Can't say I'll be rushing to read more by this author 。 。。。more

Jennifer Fernandez Naveiras ，

La historia，a pesar de ser predecible，es adictiva。 A pesar de que ya me imaginaba todo，o casi todo lo que iba a pasar，a resolución final me sorprendió，la autora plasma la historia de tal maner que me resultó interesante y no podía parar de leer。

Wasn’t entirly excited about how the last chapter summed things up - but the twist And turns thAt thiS book ConstAntly had， was Mouth openinG。

Dobra książka na szybkie czytanie。 Nie mogłam się dziś rano od niej oderwać więc nie wstałam z łóżka dopóki nie przewróciłam ostatniej strony。 Ciekawy motyw i mimo ze nie lubię rozlazłych książek to tutaj można było bardziej rozbudować niektóre wątki。 Ogólnie jednak jestem zadowolona z lektury。

Took me a long time to read this book was going to give up half way but carried on with it wasn’t great

If you love a book that is all twists and turns then this is a book for you。 Just when you think you've figured it out， it heads in a different direction。 If you love a book that is all twists and turns then this is a book for you。 Just when you think you've figured it out， it heads in a different direction。 。。。more

Trigger Warnings: Child endangerment， sexual abuse， rape， physical violence。 Story idea was solid。 Extraneous violence and abuse to children too graphic and actually detracts from plot。 My rating is 2。5 。 Skip this one。

Alyssa Oolman ，

COULD NOT PUT DOWN！ This book was so good lots of crazy twists you wouldn’t believe and they just kept coming。 Really liked this book， only giving it four stars though because the way it is written。 Throughout the book the story line was a little hard to follow and to figure out if we were present or past。 Really good book though would definitely recommend！

Erin McCurry ，

The ending absolutely ruined the entire plot for me。 I wished I’d never read it。

Glen Esq ，

This is quite a story， held my interest， even if I increasingly had to suspend belief。 I did enjoy the complexity of the heroine's backstory， though I found it confusing in the beginning with the heroine being a part of several families over her 18 years。By story's end I just couldn't believe our teenage heroine could cope as well as she did given her horrendous childhood。 Ghastly childhood。 She was so very able juggling all the balls in her charade， even fending off even the FBI。 When I think r This is quite a story， held my interest， even if I increasingly had to suspend belief。 I did enjoy the complexity of the heroine's backstory， though I found it confusing in the beginning with the heroine being a part of several families over her 18 years。By story's end I just couldn't believe our teenage heroine could cope as well as she did given her horrendous childhood。 Ghastly childhood。 She was so very able juggling all the balls in her charade， even fending off even the FBI。 When I think realistically she would been caught up as a sex worker， drug addict， prison， serious mental illness。 The heroine gets a taste of each of these in her backstory， but they seem small hurdles the heroine is able to rise above。 By book's end it was just too much。 Still as a fantasy I enjoyed the ride， suspenseful and there were surprises。One final beef - the epilogue （view spoiler）[No， I just don't believe a teenager would forgive the mother who sold her as a young child to pedophiles。 Nope not buying it。 （hide spoiler）] 。。。more

4，5 estrellas。 Rápido de leer con algunos giros inesperados。

Paul Morvant ，

Such a good book。 I felt it was predictable， and though I may have got it somewhat wrong， I was in the right ballpark。 Either way， predictable or not， the story leading up to the end was great， and the ending was the cherry on top。

Rose Clarke ，

I found this a little slow to get my attention， but once it did I found myself really engaged with the story fascinated to know what was going to happen。 There are multiple twists within twists and the plot made me question what I thought was right and wrong at many points。

Denee Beintema ，

This book was really good。 Kind of knew what was happening though but still loved it。

Sigyte S ，

Įdomumas prasidėjo nuo kokio 90 psl， bet kai prasidėjo tai negalėjau padėt knygos。 Aišku， buvo galima nemažai ką suprasti kas ir kaip， bet vis tiek patiko。Saugi？ Tik nepamiršk žiūrėti kas tau už nugaros。

Deb Lancaster ，

Pretty tight thriller /domestic noir。

Jurgita Vosylė ，

Iš pradžių atrodė gan silpnoka knyga lyginant su prieš tai mano skaitytais trileriais， ypač kai ties viduriu buvo atskleista intriga。。。。galvoju visai neįdomu， kad taip anksti， bet deje。。。。užsisuko kita visai netikėta intriga :） nuo 270 puslapio jau buvo sunku atsitraukti ir žinoma istorija baigėsi visai ne taip， kaip tikėjausi。

Justina Neliubšienė ，

Man tikrai patiko， įtraukė， perskaičiau tikrai greitai，nes buvo įdomu kas bus toliau。 👍🙂

Pauline Chamberlain ，

A good thriller with twists in the plot。 A child disappears at the age of six and comes back as an adult

Diana Graham ，

At first， I thought okay， we are in part 4 of the audiobook and there are 4 more parts。 What could they possibly have to write about？ And then another wave。 Great book， will def read another by this author

Repix ，

No está mal， pero no me ha sorprendido。

Paige ，

This review has been hidden because it contains spoilers。 To view it， click here。 Okay， I didn’t really get into the book until after I found out Jenny was a fake。 But even then the writing style really threw me off。 I’m not sure how to explain it。 The book was good， don’t get me wrong。 But I feel like the ending was a twist I sort of expected。 Also， did not necessarily like the reuniting jobeth with her mom at the and。 Idk。 Kinda iffy about it all。

Gus Giray ，

Me encantó。 Lo que más me gustó fue los giros de trama tan bien elevorados。

Katherine Hegarty ，

Honestly thought I wasn’t going to enjoy this， it seemed a bit too much “stream of consciousness” but then - POW - it all kicks off and things are NOT what they seem AT ALL。 Couldn’t put this down， so many twists and turns and after the first 4 chapters or so， it really gathers pace。 I bought this on a whim as it was 99p on Kindle and so glad that I did， well worth a read if you like a mystery。

Larry Woods ，

A page turner but with almost too many twists and turns！
