Alaina Urquhart is the co-host of my favorite podcast, Morbid, so when she wrote this one I knew I had to read it! I was not disappointed. It felt a lot like one of the true crime stories that I listen to so it got me spooked with the reality of the plot. Like any good thriller there's twists in the story that are going to get you on the waiting list for book number two.
Whoa, this book was good. Perfectly suspenseful and very interesting characters. I’m hooked and cannot wait to read other books by Alaina.
