    This was a lot better than I thought it would be! Normally, I don’t enjoy these kinds of thrillers because I feel like the twist is too forced or farfetched. But I thought this one was really well thought out and had a good amount of foreshadowing and breadcrumbs spread out all though-out the story.

    It appears to have a simple premise: a little girl goes missing from a lake and her sister wants to find her kidnapper. We start off with the POV of the main suspect (Ted) and his very religious pet cat (Olivia) and are later introduced to the sister’s POV (Didi). But we slowly get introduced to these characters' inner turmoils and traumas, as we unpack the past and try to get a hold on the present.

    It is not an action-packed story about a dark investigation. It’s more like a character study that unravels the tragedies that these characters have had to go through.

    I was anxious for most of the book and felt very deeply for these characters and their sorrow.

    “I think it’s a relief. I don’t have to think of you as my son. I don’t have to search my heart for a love that I don’t feel.”

    DAMNNNNNNNNN THATS COLD
