My Review:

The premise of this one intrigued and I couldn’t wait to dive in. I have to say that I was surprised by this one. I wasn’t expecting it to take the twists and turns that it did. I was quickly sucked in by the first scene, but I admittedly struggled for a little bit after that because my brain was trying to figure out where the story was going and what was going on inside of Adaleigh’s head. Once I got a little deeper in though, I settled in and was more willing to wait for Adaleigh’s past to be revealed in layers as the primary drama of the story revealed itself.

I was impressed with the author’s ability to naturally weave more than one plausible solution to the murder mystery in, and it really does keep the reader on their toes. It was also interesting that the author weaved in the concept that people tend to be more willing to speak to a stranger than someone they know because they don’t think they’ll see them again or fear being judged. It’s a concept I’ve actually discussed with others before so it was interesting to see it played out through a narrative.

I really enjoyed this story and I’m looking forward to reading more in the series. I adored Adaleigh and David and hope they get to pop up again in the future installments as well. Highly recommend this one!
