My Thoughts-
What a fantastic psychological thriller. I have never read any of the author's other books but I definitely will in the future. The action takes place over a few days and it kept me at the edge of my seat. I could not put it down due to the many twists and turns that were happening throughout the book.The ending really surprised me and throughout the book, I thought that had it all figured out but something else was thrown in that changed it all. If you like thrillers this is the book for you. There was a movie inspired by the book in 2006 and I hope that it is as good as the book. I am heading over to Netflix to check it out. So if you like thrillers, this is the book for you.
Disclaimer: I received a free copy of the book by the Hachette Book Group for my honest review and I was not compensated for my review.
I LOVE Ted Dekker's books. Thanks for the review. I was really surprised at the ending also.
