Absolutely stunning and unforgettable. I was instantly drawn into Alice's world and was not released until the end of the book. So many curves and unexpected surprises around the bend. It was chilling and yet also heartbreaking . Alice had some hard decisions and things to go through in compelling, unnerving , fathomable story. It didn't take me long to read . It kept me intrigued and interested. I would definitely read more of her books. This was a wonderful novel. I would read it again . I had never read anything by her. But definitely will in the future. This will definitely stay in my favorite book selection . I have recommended this book to several of my friends and family who have read it and loved it .
