Intriguing with a twist at the end
Have to say it kept me interested from the start. Well written and a surprise ending. Though it was a bit off putting by how each character is written in separate chapters so pretty much a back and forth, however the storyline kept me interested.

The description of the book on the back cover is not at all accurate.
The description on the back cover is not at all accurate; not even close. It is a completely different book than what is described on the back cover. I am not sure if that was intentional as a way to hook readers or if it was just lazy. But either way, I felt duped by the back cover.The book takes place in just a day. It starts out pretty good. In the prologue, one of the neighbors is introduced and then never heard from again. I found that really weird. I thought for sure she would be connected somehow but that never happened. I am not sure why she was even introduced to begin with.The book is told from the perspective of a multiple characters and dives a little into their lives. I thought some of the deep dive into their back stories were a little boring and unnecessary.The book started to drag towards the end because it took forever to get to the end. The twist was actually pretty good. I did not see it coming. There were small clues throughout the book that the person keeping one of the characters hostage was not who you thought it was. However, the reveal of the twist was poorly written in my opinion. I had to re-read it a few times to make sure I was reading it correctly. It seemed kind of sloppy in the reveal. And the last 20 or so pages were so boring, I just skimmed right through them to the end.Overall, this book will be a quick read. The twist is decent but it drags in several places and the flipping around to different characters get tedious after a while. The storytelling was a little sloppy in places. But whoever wrote the back cover description should be fired because the book was not the way it was described AT ALL. I think it actually would have been a better book if it was anything like the description.

Great twist toward the end
This book is a scary tale of a mom and her kids trapped in their house with a violent man. The ending feels a little bit too much the way you want it to end to be real but still a great book.

A really fabulous book, so tense, so unexpected. What a great cast of characters and the way it’s written just keeps you guessing right up to the end. I read it in a day and that’s unheard of for me, I literally couldn’t stop reading!
