Critic reviews

"Chilling, satisfying suspense." ( Good Housekeeping)
"A tensely written, shocking book that will hold readers on the edge of their seats to the very last page." ( Publishers Weekly)
"Fast-paced, dark, and slightly disturbing, you won't be able to put this book down until its jaw-dropping ending.... Absolutely brilliant!" (Kerry Lonsdale, Wall Street Journal best-selling author of Everything We Keep)

Brilliantly written & engrossing.

*Spoilers*
You would think the author has had many years of experience of working with people with narcissistic personality disorder it's so well written but I don't think she has. Unless she has had personal experience of course. I'm glad that she recognised that although highly dangerous, someone with Paul's condition is highly susceptible to failure and a failure to see the obvious due to his literally blinding narcissism. A trait which many stories and movies ignore for storytelling reasons. I have only one small gripe which is I honestly don't thing Paul would have been able to successfully take down an ex special ops guy with a surprise stranglehold...
