This was a great first read of the year! I was seriously hooked! The storyline felt so real, like I was hearing a true crime story not reading a thriller novel. I was so intrigued by a story about a serial killer’s daughter. I feel like murder stories typically are about a victim or even the murderer but this one had a different spin that I really enjoyed. I can’t imagine how hard it would be to find out someone you thought you knew turned out to be a completely different, and horrible person. When the murders looked so similar to the ones from 20 years ago, it really had my detective brain going to try and figure out the mystery myself along with Chloe. And I thought I did have it but the story kept going in different directions it had me changing my mind so often I didn’t truly see the outcome until it was happening. If you’re into thrillers, mysteries and/or true crime this is a must read.

Read this book in 24 hours and it certainly didn’t disappoint! The beginning started off slow as the background was being built and it took me a while to realized what was past and present in the beginning chapters. However, this book had major twist and turns and kept me wanting more. Great read!
