** spoiler alert ** I had promised myself never to read another book by this author, and I should have kept that promise.
But I had to satisfy a special request from a friend who guaranteed that this is the author’s best.
Because I had very low expectations I can’t say that I was disappointed.
This author is definitely not for me.
All of her books starts very strong but it gets ruined during the development, either by weak dialogues or by unbelievable twists.
Here we have vibes of “And Then There Were None� and “The Sixth Sense�.
If you think that’s original then you are in for a treat.
I personally was not impressed or surprised by the development of the the storyline, but I do have to agree that the atmosphere was very good, as well as its structure.
The audiobook, which I played while reading, is really good and I do recommend it.
I will not be surprised if someone decides to make an adaptation for the screen.

Nancy (playing catch-up) At least you gave her one last shot and know for sure her books aren't your cup of tea. I hope you enjoy your next book more, Nilton!


NILTON TEIXEIRA Thanks Nancy!

JaymeO Great review Nilton! She is one of my favorite authors, but I agree that this twist was more obvious than her other books. Sorry it didn’t work for you!


NILTON TEIXEIRA Thanks JaymeO!


Barbara I'm listening to the audio now...not going to read your review yet.....


NILTON TEIXEIRA I hope that you will enjoy it Barbara. The audiobook is a good choice.

Mark  Porton At least you persisted Nilton, nice review mate


NILTON TEIXEIRA Thanks Mark!

message 15: by Tina (new) - rated it 4 stars

Tina I've been looking forward to this one and I'm sorry to hear it did not work for you. You know her last one, "Rock Paper Scissors" was such a hit but I thought it was just ok. A good and fair review Nilton!


NILTON TEIXEIRA Thanks Tina! I hope that you will enjoy this book, if you decide to read it. There are plenty of 5 stars.


Kat I'm halfway through the audiobook right now, but we'll see where I end up. A fair and honest review, Nilton!


NILTON TEIXEIRA Thanks Kat! I hope that you will not be disappointed.

Andrea Honest review. 😀

Debbie W. Great review, Nilton! So... will you be reading anything else by this author, or have you learned your lesson? 😂


NILTON TEIXEIRA Thanks Debbie!
And yes.
I have no intention of reading anything by this author from now on. No matter who begs.


Marialyce Aw Nikton, I am sorry this one didn't hit the mark with you. Onto better!


NILTON TEIXEIRA Thanks Marialyce! Can’t always win. 😊

Kay I also have a list of authors I won't read anymore Nilton. In my case, I won't say never ever.🤭 Great review for your last Feeney!


NILTON TEIXEIRA Thanks Katy! This author must be wanting the title of the queen of far fetched conclusions. She tried too hard in every book. But lots of readers love her.
