This book was a page burner, and while I didn’t resent the times I had to put it down to take care of work, it was getting close. Having attended a few writer’s retreats through the years, I am extremely grateful none of them were like this one. Then, again, I may have gotten that dreamed for break.
If thrillers, especially psychological thrillers, are your go-to genre, go now, get this book. Not my normal go-to genre, but this one was fun. Not a lot of blood and gore on the floor, not a massive gush of adrenalin, no nightmares when I put it down to sleep. And the ending/epilog was great. It was unlike any other ending/epilog I’ve ever read.
My definition of a good novel is one where I can get lost in someone else’s world, and leave mine for a short time. I also want an HEA ending, or at least all the loose ends tied up, and a logical ending. It’s been a while since I read this book, but my memory is all the loose ends were resolved—and there might be a sequel!
A good hot weather book to read—it takes place in winter with a snow storm.
