My Thoughts
I like mystery, suspense, thrillers, and psychological thrillers in general. This book definitely fits into those categories.
I was totally surprised by the ending. I didn't see it coming. But all of the puzzle pieces start to fall into place as you look back. I thought the first two chapters were a bit slow, but you really want to hang in there. Then the story starts picking up... and then I could not put down the book. I was reading from about 12:30am to 6:30am. I was going to read just until I fell asleep. But it is morning, my eyes are dry and bloodshot. A huge thumbs up to Terry Shepherd. I thought this was immaculately written and beautifully finished. The ending is spectacular and non predictable. It has been a long time since i enjoyed reading something so much and I will continue to sing its praises until everyone I know reads it. I must say this was an excellent read that kept me on my toes from the first page to the last. I am not much of a sleuth, so as I read the book I kept thinking, “don’t trust him” or “don’t trust her.”. The ending was a surprise to me. The book just had me enthralled from beginning to end and I highly recommend it.
The plot turns come fast and furious... Sharp characters enmeshed in a mystery that, particularly in its final lap, is a gleefully dizzy ride.
Highly Recommended!
