Cherrie Forrester is having a dark secret. Her father was a notorious serial killer who murdered boys and her real name was Leigh Ann and she was nicknamed as Little Bones. She changed her name to Cherrie Forrester to start a new life. When a boy named Thomas Doncaster disappeared, the past comes back haunting her, especially when a podcast was aired talking about her past…

At first, the first few chapters were gripping and intense. The emotional trauma that Cherrie was going through seems realistic. I was hooked into the story that I couldn’t put this book down. However, towards the end, it kind of became lame and the ending to me was a bit confusing. Most characters are not very likable but the writing was OK. The author did a good job making the reader hooked into the story.

Overall, it was a good thriller, though not fast paced. Worth four stars!
