I have been swirled around willy-nilly in the frenzied currents of this book, a fairly unpleasant experience, all-in-all. Rapid jumps from one unlikeable character to the next did keep the pace up but made it more confusing than suspenseful as I had to keep flipping back to see who was talking.
Jess comes to Paris to visit her brother, Ben Daniels, but he turns up missing. Everyone wanted Ben - Nick Miller, Mimi, Sophie - but no one seemed to want him found. She lurches from one strange event to ...more

From the very beginning, a creepy atmosphere permeates this tale surrounding a Parisian home and its inhabitants.

I absolutely loved this novel! I really enjoy her style of writing, and she does a fantastic job of creating twists and reveals that make the novel fun and exciting. Quite a few times I would laugh out loud and say “Holy plot twist!” and then have to explain to my husband what happened. There were a few parts that seemed a little slow to build, but it was definitely worth it as everything came together. She’s definitely becoming one of my favorite authors!
Not very happy with the language. The story was twisty. I liked that. But the all characters were pretty unlikeable.
