Critic reviews

"Brutal but thoughtful and well plotted, fast moving and well told." (Observer)

"Kellerman moves her gritty mean streets LA plot along with breakneck pace." (Irish Independent)

"Kellerman creates a claustrophobic atmosphere, against a background of seediness, violence and distrust." (Sunday Telegraph)

It fell a little flat for me.

I did enjoy the book however at times I felt it got a little too long and a bit too much! However it was a solid plot and plot twist which I appreciate.

Not her usual work

Almost pornographic!! I usually like her stories although her dialogue is not realistic but the story took off in a unpleasant direction.

What happened to kellerman

This book about a missing child, mentions said child about a half dozen times maybe in passing. Meanwhile the repeated assault of a woman fills in whole hours. not just disappointing, this book is disgusting.
