Ei Jääkaksosten veroinen, mutta viihdyttävä lukukokemus. Ehkä hieman itsestäänselvyyksiä mutta hullut juonenkäänteet jotka on uskottavasti kirjoitettu pelastavat.

Thank you to the publishers and Netgalley for the ARC of this book in exchange for a honest review.

I have read all of the author's books and I have loved them. They are creepy and tend to have a supernatural element to it at times. This book just kept me guessing and I had no idea where the story was going. When the ending was revealed, it was quite shocking and definitely not what I expected. This is a really good psychological thriller.

I highly recommend this book as well as the author's previous books.

I've read three by this author now, one under a different pseudonym, and two of the three had for me gratuitous violence. Of course that's my opinion and others may well enjoy that. To me it seemed superfluous for the story which was well read although slightly repetitive at times. The idea was good, the characters believable and well rounded out, if it weren't for the excess violent theme I'd have given it a higher star rating.
