☼SYNOPSIS

When Chloe Davis was twelve, six teenage girls went missing in her small Louisiana town. By the end of the summer, Chloe’s father had been arrested as a serial killer and promptly put in prison. Chloe and the rest of her family were left to grapple with the truth and try to move forward while dealing with the aftermath.

Now 20 years later, Chloe is a psychologist in private practice in Baton Rouge and getting ready for her wedding. She finally has a fragile grasp on the happiness she’s worked so hard to get. Sometimes, though, she feels as out of control of her own life as the troubled teens who are her patients. And then a local teenage girl goes missing, and then another, and that terrifying summer comes crashing back. Is she paranoid, and seeing parallels that aren't really there, or for the second time in her life, is she about to unmask a killer?

☾REVIEW

★★★

Rating: 3 out of 5.

this was fun, and I have to say I kind of liked it. 

the idea sounded soooo good that I knew I had to read it. before I did it, I went into goodreads and saw how everybody was saying that it was super predictable and how everyone had guessed who the murder was, which, im not going to lie, made me feel a little bit discourage but I went into it nonetheless. 

a bit part for me in mystery books is the surprise factor and yes, I did guess it too. 

not the entire thing but a part. clearly that is a huge reason why this book did not got a higher rating.

i liked the fact that we are following the daughter whose father was charged as a murdered, I thought it was such an interesting thing to see and follow the point of view of someone that was directly involved with the murder.

overall I did enjoyed it, its super easy to read and not complicated at all, I do recommend it because I feel like everyone would like it even if you guessed the ending!
