Publisher's summary

Nothing is as it appears in this twisting novel from the nationally best-selling author of Dead Even.

A fashion magazine features editor, Leah McDevitt is haunted by the memory of her cherished younger sister, Melissa, who vanished years ago. Missy, whose extraordinary eyes - one blue, one brown - may have lured her abductor to her. When Leah receives a letter from death-row inmate Raymond Lambert, she eagerly agrees to pay him the long-standing reward for information about Melissa - even if it means coming face-to-face with a notorious serial killer.

But before Lambert can impart his secrets, he himself is killed. Devastated but determined, Leah heads to the Maine woods to seek out Private Investigator Ethan Sanger, who authored a book about Lambert in exchange for yet another of Lambert’s terrible secrets. Leah and Ethan strike a sparking passion with the power to heal their painful pasts. But someone has his eye on Leah - someone who knows more than he should...and who won’t be satisfied until Leah sees the truth with her own eyes.

Not quite thriller, but not quite romance

This was a great story, but I would not classify it as a thriller or even a mystery necessarily. There is some elements of both, but not in a gruesome or graphic sense. There is quite a bit of romance involved as well. While my tastes usually tend to the darker side when it comes to thrillers, mysteries, and suspense, and I almost always shy away from romances, I found it to be quite enjoyable. The only thing I found a bit disconcerting was the cadence of the narrator’s voice. I can’t put my finger on what it is exactly, but it sounded odd to me. So much so that I almost didn’t get past the second chapter. Overall, I am glad I decided to stick it out.

Nice short story

This book isn't as long and drawn out as most romantic suspense titles. Still, the story kept me engaged and I wanted to know the answers to the who done it. I figured out one of the villains early on and the motive. I just couldn't stop listening. The ending seemed a little rushed but it's a happy one.

Sing-song narration + repetitive story

I wanted to like the story but the telling was so repetitive and the narration was almost mechanical in its sing song style.
