The day she's to return to work after maternity leave, Camilla wakes up to find that her husband is involved in a hostage situation - as the PERPETRATOR. Holy moly, what a ride! These pages simply flew by as I raced to find out what in the actual heck was going on here. This unique premise grabbed me from the start and never really let me go. I love that it's a thriller, but it's also a story about a family and how one small decision can change everything. I thought I had things figured out more than once, but I was only right about one small detail. The last 5% got a bit choppy, but overall this was a fantastic read for me.
This thriller is for fans of TJ Newman and McAllister's backlist Wrong Place, Wrong Time. Don't pick this one up if you've got somewhere to be tomorrow morning; you're going to need a nap after a long night.
Thank you to NetGalley and William Morrow for the opportunity to read this thriller prior to publication in exchange for this honest review.
