If you read Gone Girl, this is a far inferior book. If you haven't read Gone Girl, look for that one first. To me this is a blatant knock-off not worthy of publishing. It has somewhat of its own plot, it goes back and for between time and characters and overall a good premise, but since a book so similar is out there and in my opinion written so much better, this is just a knock-off.

A very decent debut. The relationship between the main two characters is disturbing is it a classic case of Stockholm syndrome or no? Although I do consider this a page-turner, it loses a couple of stars because of the mother and father's relationship towards one another it was quite tedious having to read through those parts.
