I was given a free advanced copy of this book by Dutton Books in exchange for my honest review. I stopped reading about 100 pages in. The book thus far is grim without reward and on children, no less. I read a lot of thrillers and mysteries and some horror, and I can handle a lot of things, but I also can easily predict a twist coming. I can make a pretty good guess about how this one is going to turn out and the writing and the darkness of the plot just isn't worth it for me. Maybe if someone doesn't read a lot of thrillers they might enjoy this one more than I did.
