Just when I thought maybe I needed to take a long break from thrillers I decided to try one more time and picked this one up hoping it would be good. Well, it was better than good for me, it was great and I loved it!!

Synopsis: It’s New Year’s Eve 1999. Y2K is expected to end in chaos: planes falling from the sky, elevators plunging to earth, world markets collapsing. A digital apocalypse. None of that happens. But at a Blockbuster Video in Linden, New Jersey, four teenage girls working the night shift are attacked. Only one survives. Police quickly identify a suspect who flees and is never seen again.

Fifteen years later, in the same town, four teenage employees working late at an ice cream store are attacked, and again only one makes it out alive.

Both surviving victims recall the killer speaking only a few final words... “Goodnight, pretty girl.”

In the aftermath, three lives intersect: the survivor of the Blockbuster massacre who’s forced to relive her tragedy; the brother of the original suspect, who’s convinced the police have it wrong; and the FBI agent, who’s determined to solve both cases. On a collision course toward the truth, all three lives will forever be changed, and not everyone will make it out alive.

Besides the synopsis all you really need to know is that it’s fast paced, gripping and told from several interesting viewpoints that really kept the plot moving and kept me glued to the pages. I just had so much fun with this one and found it to be entertaining, clever and tense.
