Helpful Score: 8
A fun thriller with a surprise ending. French makes you loathe the antagonist and all of the people who are ignorant enough to fall into his traps. She keeps you rooting for the heroine throughout the book.
Helpful Score: 1
Good psychological thriller (like all of French's books)!
However, I was a smidge disappointed in the ending; it seemed a little too pat and contrived. The scarily insidious "villain" character of Brendan, though, more than made up for my disappointment... one of the scariest and most believeable bad guys I've read in a while.

This was definitely creepy. I loathed Brendan and wanted to shake Miranda for letting it get so far in the beginning. A very good read, I'll check out more of French's books.

Not my favorite of Nicci French's books. However, it is interesting and ends well.

Great book, read in one sitting!
