I'm not surprised at how quickly I got into this. Riley's writing is captivating. The way he describes the scenes and situations leaves you wanting more. His characters and setting come alive.
The story is told by switching from past to present. I found it blended perfectly. We travelled back 15 years are the right moments. Giving us the clues for what the truth would be.
The twist at around 66% shocked me. At first I had thought it was Emma thinking back, which I think was what Riley wanted. This added another lair of suspense and mystery. I was more intrigued. I even started questioning Emma and if she was involved.
Even the twist at the end was a shock to me. Although when thinking back the clues were there I just missed them.
