"I just finished this book and I can compare it to Lovely Bones in a way. Thankfully the story ends well. There are 2 more books that stem from this one, but I dont know that I will read them because I have a hard time with psychological damage. " — Brandy (4 out of 5 stars)

" Awesome suspense book. I'm going today to get the next in the series "

" Started off a little slow, but picked up. I'm looking forward to reading the final two installments of this trilogy. "
" First published book in the Roth Trilogy (though the third chronologically). A female Anglican curate and her policeman husband are rocked by the kidnapping of their daughter. Lots of church politics and theology. "
" Looks like I'm going to have to read the whole series to understand why Angel is so crazy!!! "
" anxious to read book number 2 "
" My god, this was a good book. I can't wait to read the others. While it's not the best ever, it was a very engaging, complex book with believable characters. It was creepy and not too gory. "
" i was really surprised that i liked this book. when i picked it up at the library it sounded but i thought i would get it anyways because i really needed something to read. i couldn't put it down. a good book and an easy read "
" Not great, not bad. I'm intrigued enough to read the next one. "
" This book was disturbing...but the ending had me interested in the next one (it's a trilogy). But not sure that I want to since this one disturbed me. Troubling and confusing. "
" Very interesting English mystery, my first introduction to enlish phrases and dialect. Starting on book #2 of the trilogy today. Like the way the characters are interwoven throughout the years. A good thrilling read. "
" A good suspenseful page-turner, the first book in a trilogy that goes backward in time somehow - I will probably read the other two just to satisfy my curiosity about how the reverse timeline actually plays out. "
