I have no words! None! 

 It’s not often I’m left this shaken by a book but damn! This was one hell of a ride that I did not want to get off of. Yes it has a lot of gore (that I skipped over) but this book also has so much heart and soul! 
 The Dads letters to his missing daughter are gut wrenchingly beautiful. Lydia and Claire’s relationship is so amazing to unpack. The mother’s denial is also so well fleshed out. 
 I couldn’t fault this book even if I tried. Loved it!

I really enjoyed this book. If you love a thriller mystery that hooks you in and makes you want to read/hear more this is it.
