I am a great fan of Thriller/Mystery/Suspense genre. So this book was a no-brainer for me as it had garnered quite the attention and buzz. I picked it up thinking it's going to be one of those books with the constant twists and turns that will have me at the end of my seat. But this book is a slow-paced thriller with a mind-blowing twist that I did not see coming.

I positively enjoyed the book and got hooked until the end. I loved the twist and did not see it coming at all. The story is intriguing and compelling. However, I did have some issues with the book. Some of the characters like Paul (Alicia's cousin), Yuri (head psychiatric nurse) left a lot of questions unanswered. Yuri's interactions with Theo regarding Alicia were confusing. The motivation Paul had; to get money from Alicia is not addressed. Despite these enigmas, I still appreciated the story. I can understand why some people were disappointed. The hype surrounding the book was huge. Did it live up to the hype? No. Was it an enjoyable read? Yes. I would positively recommend this to all the fans out there who enjoy the slow-paced Mystery.
