Rate this book
I trusted her. I shouldn’t have…

Samantha Valentine didn’t drift into my life, she collided with it. Soon it was like we had been friends forever. She told me everything about her perfect life, but I always felt there was something she was leaving out.

Then one night, I get a frantic call from Samantha, hysterical and begging me to protect her from her boyfriend. Rushing to her house, instinct takes over and soon my heart is hammering out of my chest as I stand over the body of a man I had never met before this evening.

But by the time the police arrive, Samantha has vanished. The officers tell me that there is no record of her anywhere. The woman I thought was my friend has tricked me into killing a perfect stranger.

As the police slip the handcuffs on my wrists, I know I’ve made a terrible mistake. By protecting a woman I never really knew, I’ve destroyed my life. Who is Samantha really, and why did she make me do this? She’s taken everything from me, but she has no idea how far I will go to get the truth…

A gripping psychological thriller absolutely packed with twists. Perfect for fans of T.M. Logan, Frieda McFadden and Daniel Hurst.

I enjoyed this book a lot!! I was sad finishing book 8 because I thought the series was over. But I double checked, and saw this had just came out! I’ve enjoyed the entire series :)

I love this series and this one might be my favourite! The plot was kept simple, tight and although I guessed what was going on quite early, it worked as a good piece of dramatic irony. Erin is an icon and I really enjoyed how she was written. The final few scenes were particularly entertaining, and overall, this is a great cat and mouse story.

Soooo twisty!! There were a couple times when I wanted to slap Dan and point my finger at things we was missing/forgetting. Regardless, the author kept many balls in the air and wrote a compelling, page-turning story. (I say that having listened to the audiobook, but you know what I mean.)

The characters were interesting and I’ll be listening to more from this series.
