Review:
Alice has worked hard just to survive. She’s survived the foster system, an insane mother and now surviving living alone. But, when women start showing up dead and a stalker she can’t shake she is soon thrown into the police investigation. Her connection to the killer will make her the perfect bait. Alice will have her biggest challenge to survive. Can she help the police capture this madman or will he make her his next victim?
I enjoyed this book. It was definitely different from Candace Osmond’s previous novels. This will take you on a psychological thrill ride. Putting you through the emotions that Alice must fight and come to terms with. Though their was an ongoing theme connected to Alice in Wonderland there really isn’t much of a connection. Most of the Alice in Wonderland connection was pretty superfluous. It was an interesting addition but it didn’t really have much of an impact on the basic story. Alice is a very strong character that you truly feel for. Her choices are rarely her own. In the end, she makes a choice that could change her forever. If you’re looking for a great psycho thriller you will truly enjoy this book. It will keep you on your toes until the very end.
