This is one of those books that once you start, you can't put down. I needed to know what was happening, even though it creeped me out.
Madi, a palm reader, has moved back to her childhome town and runs into Henry, an old high-school sweetheart. 5 years ago Henry's son, Skylar, went missing and his wife died, now Madi has promised Henry she'll help him find Skylar.
I was not at all expecting this novel to go where it did. It was so well written and whilst Madi did annoy me at times, I can understand why she did what she does. I'm blindsided by the last 40% of the book. I would highly recommend.
