I almost gave this book two stars for the ending alone which is very open-ended. I wanted closure! In my opinion, Matthew has the worst taste in women ever. Anyway, the book started off rather intriguing with an attempted suicide. The back story of the end of Matthew's first marriage was interesting, if not suspicious (the wife that is.) The book dragged a little in place when the story was a jumble of present and past. Laura was an enigma after her "incident." It definitely kept me in suspense, but I would have liked a more solid ending. (book with one word title for 2015 reading challenge)

This novel was good, although it was very predicable. The tension builds slowly, and the ending, although violent, was able to be seen from the beginning. An enjoyable psychological thriller, though.

This book didn't really get going till around the 40% mark. It was very predictable, and the ending was obvious.
