This was a different type of book for Kelley Armstrong, and I absolutely loved it! She writes a terrific thriller, but also delves into the real world of mental illness. What it means to the person who has it and has to struggle with it every day, how it affects those around them and their struggle, and then the public and the lack of knowledge about mental illnesses that makes them ignorant and afraid. Ms. Armstrong really did her homework.

The thriller was great. The ending whodunit was predictable, but you really didn't even care about that. There already had been so many OMG and hold your breath moments in the book that by the time it was solved you were just glad it was solved.

I recommend this book to anyone who likes a good thriller, or anyone who wants to know a little bit more about the real story of mental illness. A+
