I would describe this book as a light thriller/mystery meets the dark and unsettling. The plot was a unique take on ‘what if I married a serial killer?’ and I think the author was able to play it out very well. There were some pitfalls and some very obnoxious inconsistencies throughout, but I think the execution of writing an edge of your seat thriller was pretty okay.

I enjoyed the short chapters. It gave the book a very quick pace and each chapter ended with you wanting to keep reading (what's another 4-5 pages?). This book is also told from a multiperspective which adds to the speedy build-up to the climax. I found myself really enjoying the first half of this and I could not put it down.

Once I got to about the halfway point, the storytelling fell very flat. I started to feel as if someone were narrating a scene to me rather than me reading a scene. As the story progressed, I began having a difficult time really believing the story and its characters because there were so many inconsistencies and many unexplained loose ends. I am also not a fan of women on a journey who happen to find love along the way, and especially in a few days’ time.

If you are looking for a light, fast-paced breezy mystery, I say this is probably the book for you. There is a pretty sick revenge scene near the end of this, so if you don’t look past the surface, it is a pretty good read.
