"I absolutely loved this novel. It kept me interested throughout, and the last few chapters provided film-worthy twists and turns. I would love to see this adapted to film, it was an absolutely amazing story beginning to end, and the way it ended up was fantastic. I was so tense through the last 30% of the book, I had to find out what was happening; I read nonstop until I finished! Very happy with this read."
— Summer (5 out of 5 stars)

" Has all the basic elements of a good thriller/mystery/suspense novel. A protagonist who is likeable. Well defined characters. A plausable plot. And last a plot where you don't see the twists coming for most of the book. Would recommend for those who like this genre. "

" This isn't a bad little book. An okay mystery. I was attracted by the Nashville setting and I completed a few chapters but I just wasn't able to get into it. I skipped to the final pages (Yes, I give myself permission to do that) and I think I would have been surprised by the ending. "
