I'm not sure what I was expecting, but this wasn't it. The beginning setup was intriguing, but the further I read the more frustrated I felt. Both the main characters- Jules and Amber were insufferable. I felt nothing for either of them and then we go into a plot of a serial killer that has been stal......more

Quotes

“As usual, Berry tightens the screws smartly in the opening pages and never lets up, and as usual, her ending is more intent on deepening the nightmare than providing a plausible explanation for it. Warning: the title applies as much to the audience as to the characters.” —Kirkus Reviews“As the suspense mounts, the action drives to a harrowing conclusion. Berry delivers the goods.” —Publishers Weekly“A well-done mystery with a plausible yet surprising ending.” —Library Journal
