The opening scene was quite chilling. A quiet calm day sitting in a fold up chair with a fishing pole in the lake. All of a sudden you pull the most foul smelling plastic bag out of the water instead of a fish. Of course it set me off immediately before I finished reading giving me chills and trying to figure out just what was in the bag. I knew it was human but was it a head or a hand or something else. One of the more intriguing openings I have read in a while.
Mallory I kind of first had to laugh at the description with the word emo. I like the fact that she isn’t standard and reminds me a lot of Goth dark hair that doesn’t suit her as well as piercings in the ears and the nose. Makes it a lot of fun as you don’t often hear about police that are unique looking. It enhanced the story for me.
I really enjoyed hearing about the brother of Mallory Ollie and to show the inclusive attitude. It is always great to see how others react to those with disabilities and I think it’s great that the other cop asked about him and seemed interested in his wellbeing.
The pace of the book is quite fast so it really keeps you wanting to read to find out what’s next. I think this author is a master at this.
I love the character Ryan he is such a mess in his emotions and you can see what type of person he was before all the tragedy. He makes you just wish you could comfort him.
This is a great book one of a new series and I really am looking for more on this series as I really think the characters just resonate so well.
