This seemingly simple tale had me absolutely hooked from the first few pages.
Lilith is a very interesting character and as I learnt more about her life in LA and little snippets from her childhood, I began to feel a subtle darkness sneaking its way into the story.
Her friendship/love with Cassius is charmingly depicted, her relationship with the Magda is lovely and her obvious love of Dylan and Jessie is heart warming. I take my hat off to Patrick for so patiently accepting the arrival of Lilith’s ex into the bosom of their lives.
Without wishing to give anything away, the brooding darkness soon whips itself up as the seemingly idyllic picture takes an unpleasant turn and this book is a must read for all fans of clever psychological suspense thrillers.
My thanks to Jemma Wayne and Legend Times for letting me be a part of this blog tour.
