Fabulous Read

I loved this story. It's very well written with much intrigue and suspense. The surprise ending is genius. I'm looking forward to the next book in the series. Thank you Helene Mitchell.

The final "Gotcha"

Well written and kept me interested in the past/present threads, giving subtle clues to follow. The final gotcha was the best one.
