WOW this is a twisty thriller, what would you do to save your child and who do you trust? This is the first book I have read from this author but it won’t be the last.
Ari Strange has been through a lot, in the early stages of her pregnancy she loses her husband in a fiery car crash, two years on and her and her daughter, Lucy-Kate are doing well living in an apartment and she has a job, yes things are good, until they aren’t.
Ari is woken in the middle of the night by a strange sound and the cry of her daughter, when she gets up to go to her there is a strange woman covered in blood holding her daughter and she takes her precious Lucy-Kate, Ari is beside herself and runs out in the freezing cold after the woman, but when the police arrive they are accusing Ari of firstly not being Ari Strange but another woman and they are accusing her of kidnapping her own baby and no one will listen.
Ari’s grumpy neighbour, Denny is there and strangely he seems to be trying to help Ari and soon they are on the run together after nearly being shot, will Ari find her daughter before it is too late but can she trust Denny, is he somehow linked to Lucy-Kat’s kidnapping?
This is a fast paced and fabulous story, lots of twists and turns as Ari uncovers so many clues, it kept me on the edge of my seat and it was a one sitting read. I do highly recommend this one, I loved it and look forward to more in the series.
My thanks to the publisher Tule for my digital copy to read and review.
