A terrifying story for any parent. Two boys have been found murdered in town and now Abbie's son is missing. Can they figure out who stole her car to take him from school?

[Sayer Adams · Rating 3 out of 5]

The suspense side of this book was fleshed out and made for a good plot and the characters were likeable and believable. I felt like the romance angle was an afterthought, though.

Average. Readable but nothing special
