A Fun Mystery
Love this book! It's a fun mystery that makes for a great read! It was full of twists and turns that kept me guessing until the very end. A very clever story -- highly recommended! :)
Thriller For Sure
This was an amazing mystery. Couldn't put it down. I was kind of hoping they should all get away with it. Sick me, huh?
Thrilling...!
The story unfolds in an unexpected way.... Very interesting plot and well written. A little scary at times, but exciting at the same time.
I don't read mysteries and rarely read novels at all. But from the description and the professional reviews. This Fargo-esque may really be from North Dakota and not Minnesota. ;-)
