Customer Reviews

Thriller

This is a thriller with deaf characters. I enjoyed the fact we follow an interpret for dear people. I felt the characters where developed, and I also cared about most of the characters. I have to say I felt the story line was a little bit hard to follow and felt break because the fact at the end of some of the characters had flash backs. I wish they would had done a character flash back before the murder then a character on present day. If they did that I think the story line would be easier to follow. I loved the ending, and I totally did not see that ending coming. I received an ARC of this book. This review is my own honest opinion about the book like all my reviews are.
