A pretty good suspense read. The writing isn't beautiful or particularly striking, but Zoe was a good character, and it kept me turning pages.

Good basic story
Not to many twists of turns but a good story none the less. Fast, easy, quick, and free read and would recommend it based on those words

Thought the story was a good one, but...
The author had an annoying habit that got in the way. This is a good story about a young woman who escapes a serial killer and becomes hunted when he realizes where she is. I was not bothered by the graphic details like some reviewers. I would expect that from a crime novel. I also was not bothered by the "stereotype" about pit bulls (they are in the story as rescued fight dogs) or knowing the identity of the killer early on. I thought everything tied together well. What annoyed the daylights out of me was the author's incessant need to call one of the characters by her first and last name - and ONLY that character. In some scenes, it made sense, but most of the time it was just ridiculous. "Zoe, Holli, and Laura Hernandez." When the character was first introduced, it happened probably 10 times over three pages. It sounds petty, but I found it really distracting.
