I read this book as an audiobook which was the first time I had listened to a thriller. I enjoyed it this way. The dual narration for the Ainsley/Peter was really good and both narrators were a pleasure to listen to. I'd love to hear them tell a story again.

About the story.... it was a well written story and at the start of the book I was captured. I listened to 2/3rds of it in one day while I did other things. I could not "put it down"! The first plot twist was quite unexpected and surprised me for sure!
Unfortunately, after the initial twist, there was so much that seemed unrealistic to me. For example, the police detectives were providing way more detailed information then I think real life police would. And the children seemed to always be able to be gone all at the same time for the right amount of time.
I'm not sure how I feel about the last chapters. It was hard to imagine that Ainsley had planned all she had and that Peter is who we discovered... it was so far-fetched. It just does not fit together. It was like endings from different books or policing televisions shows was tossed into one story.
I wish the last 1/3rd was as good as the first 2/3rds but I am interested in reading more from this author. This was the first.

Thanks to Dreamscape Media and NetGalley for giving me the opportunity to listen to and review this book.
