From the first sentence, I was hooked! Told by a young girl who was abducted and murdered by a neighbour, I really had a hard time putting this book down. I would stay up until 2:00 in the morning, Kleenex in hand, intrigued as to what would happen next. One of my favourite books! Highly recommend!

Yay a favourite! Sounds like I shouldn't start reading during the work week haha

Wow! Would you consider this a murder mystery or a thriller or something else entirely?
Patricia wrote: "Wow! Would you consider this a murder mystery or a thriller or something else entirely?"I put it under suspense-thriller, but it could definitely be labeled "Mystery" in that although we find out right away who the murderer is, we're still in suspense if he gets caught or not.
What was weird while I was reading is hearing the name of the town I was living in on audio. Being in the same space added to the intensity
Good one Debbie, wholeheartedly agree with you on this one.

Kay wrote: "Great review Debbie [spoilers removed] oh my, I'm intrigued!"Thanks, Kay! Nope! The first two sentences say (view spoiler) So technically, it was the second sentence that drew me in!
Kay wrote: "Thanks Debbie, added!"Awesome! Hope you enjoy it as well!
I read this years ago and like you was hooked from the first sentence! Wonderful review, Debbie!
