This book was listed in our local paper as one of the top psychological thrillers to be written in the last decade, although it is a first book for author B.A. Paris.There are only a few characters in the book but few are needed to let us in on the fact that people are often not what they seem and often by the time we realize this, it is too late to change our circumstances. One of the characters is a Down syndrome girl who is almost eighteen years old. I was particularly fond of her character as I have a Down syndrome child of my own who is adopted. Because their disability is apparent upon meeting them, they are often deemed as not smart. This is such an unfair assessment just from their appearance. The book gives this character depth and shows how we might be missing a lot by not getting to know people like her.

I do not write many reviews but this book led me to this place. What to say? I have read hundreds of mystery/thrillers and never been totally lost within a story line until now. The book only has a few characters but about the time you think you know and understand each character all things change. If you enjoy books that give you a turn at every corner, read away and enjoy. I must say this is the first time I have ever finished a book with the thought "what did I just read?"
