This book has it all and as is typical of Markinson's writing her characters are so well developed and the storyline so full of excitement it is hard to stop reading once you start. The book centers around JJ, Who is finally reunited with her one true love , Claire, who she lost 20 years ago. In that 20 year span JJ has done much that she regrets and unfortunately ended up writing a book about it after being blackmailed by her ex lover. At this point in her life the only thing JJ wants is to settle down with Claire and their two children and have a normal life. That however is not in the cards as there is much betrayal, threats of blackmail, and being talked into taking on a very dangerous and potentially lethal investigation to find a serial killer. It is amazing the amount of research that Markinson put into this book as she went into detail about the Internet and media news outlets that was quite fascinating, and cereal killers. You know when you're reading that it any moment something potential he deadly could happen and at the same time you are rooting for Claire and JJ to have the quiet life they both desire as they raise their family. There are points in the story where it appears that folks close to JJ, like the cofounder in her media business, is going to throw her under the bus because she desperately wants drama in an explosive story that would boost the ratings in their media organization. JJ constantly is on edge not knowing just who is betraying her more her ex lover or her co-partner in business.
The story is amazingly well written and as is the case with all of Markinson's books, it is well edited. There is a skill and character development and plot development that makes the reader want to not put the book down once it started and with her books you can guarantee that is the case .
I was given an ARC for an honest review of this book.
