Helpful Score: 2
A fast read, a light mystery, easy to figure out âwho done itâ.
The characters were weak, the husband pathetic and pitiful.
I wanted to smack the wife's despicable best friend in the head.
The ending predictable.
However despite all this, the book did keep me reading to see what happened.

Started out really well, bogged down in the middle for a while. Got a little too much like a Lifetime movie. But the ending had a good double surprise, which I didn't completely see coming.

I really liked this mystery. It kept me turning pages and kept me guessing to the end. The ending had some unexpected twists that I thought were chilling. Nice thriller.

This has been a long time coming, the reading of this book. Some reviews called it predictable, etc. Well, maybe it was, a bit. But I feel that when I change who I am positive "done it" more than twice, it is a good read. And it was. Quick, not so nice, but not really hateful characters. A good whodunit.
At times predictable, but a fun, fast-paced read. Enjoyable!

Karen Krupp can't remember the past after she had a car accident. What was she doing in that part of town? Is Karen capable of murder? Her husband and her best friend are wondering about her. Does she have a secret past? Good writing. This was an easy read and a twisty page-turner. Kept me guessing. Suspenseful. Recommended to those who love psychological thrillers.
I was so happy I found this copy here, had just finished her other book and wanted more from her. This one didn't disapoint either so had to order the others also, I'm 2 more down the list at this point. Looking forward to more.
Read in 2 days! Fast paced and exciting. Lots of turns! Some predictable, but still not what you expect in the end
Gripped me from the beginning to the end! Questionable characters that you can not put the book down, wanting to know what will happen next!

I was hooked on this story shortly after beginning it. In the way that it was written, the reader has his/her on judgment as to who the guilty person is. However, in what is almost an epilogue but is the last chapter of the book, a big bomb drops. I was totally shocked!
It's not often I write book reviews, and even less often that I give a book 5 stars.
The only bad thing I can say about the book is I'm done reading it!

Super fast read. I liked it OK. I had a pretty good idea "who done it" early on but still enjoyed reading till the end. The characters bugged a little, too unquestioning, too "crazy", too many unanswered or unasked questions. Not very realistic. We discussed this in book club and I was the one that did not like as much as the others, who liked it a lot. We all thought it would be more intriguing if there were more people involved, maybe make it harder to figure out the mystery.

I actually enjoyed this more than I expected to. A short quick read that keeps you guessing.
