This is a new YA thriller that keeps you page turning at the edge of your seat. Wow! I didn't expect this book to be this tremendously good!!! The story keeps you guessing and guessing, altough I did have a suspect in my head that was a bit under the radar, which turned out to be true..(spoiler alert..) but altough I had a slight feeling of the ending, It totally surprised me at so many points. The characters and storyline are all sublime. Everything is in the right place at the right moment, and it reads like it is a thriller movie. And the ending was just brilliant!!! A very pleasant surprise of a book that I certainly recommend!!
