The premise of this one is what intrigued me the most. Belle was the last person at 2 years old to see her mom before she vanished. Now 16 years later, she is thrust back into the spotlight when her mom suddenly reappears. 

From the very beginning, I felt Belle's pain and wearniess of getting close and trusting others after her mother’s disappearance. She felt the need to push people away before she could ever care for them to protect herself. 

This story is full of family drama, secrets, lies, and twists. The author did a really good job with building up the tension and keeping you guessing. 

I wasn't a big fan about the ending, but my word, this book gives off "dysfunctional family" vibes on all levels

Cosby is such an amazing writer that grabs your attention from the very beginning of all his books! My Darkest Prayer is no exception!

This is the author's debut crime thriller and I can definitely see all the signature styles he has continued to improve on in his subsequent books. 

This was a gritty, action-packed, dark and highly entertaining book. 

If you haven't picked up any of Cosby's books I highly recommend them!
