I’ve never been to Hungary, but since it’s a border country with my birth one, I am aware of some parts of their culture.

I was intrigued by the story from the first chapter. After Nelli flies back to Hungary for her 20th reunion with her high school colleagues, I get to experience a fast-paced race throughout the pages to find out where everything takes me.

It was interesting to see how the author combines fiction in these two very different cultures as American and Hungarian ones.

Clint cares for his wife immensely and I loved how the author took the chance to showcase how much we take some things for granted and how less we know about the person next to us.

There are many unpredictable twists and quite a few turns where I thought I had it all sorted out. But I was wrong. And that ending is definitely the highlight for me.

Fast-paced thrilling novel that grasped my full attention from the beginning to the last page.

Very grateful to the author for my review copy.
