this author spent so much time introducing copious character perspectives (neighbors, detectives, etc) that end to going absolutely nowhere…. the book just ends?? it feels unfinished or something?? terrible, abrupt ending. very, very disappointed. don’t waste your time or money on this one. 0.01 stars.

Suspend belief and then you will enjoy this book. Never could happen in reality though.

A page turner but found myself just wanting the book to end. Under developed characters that were hard to keep track of and very reptitive. I was invested in figuring out who done it but that’s about it.

I just couldn't put this down!

This book should be turned into a mini series! One of the best books I’ve read in a long time.

Everything was great until the end….it just ends without really having an “end”. 😐

I loved this book! Twists and turns. Impossible to put down.

Page turning from the beginning but the ending was lackluster.

I was not at all impressed with the ending of this book. I figured there would be more.

There is no worse story in the thriller mystery genre than one who’s antagonist is a child. Nine year old Avery, has oppositional disorder and many other behavioral issues that have caused an a chaotic, emotionally unstable joke for her parents and her older brother Michael. She is manipulated calculating evil and cruel. She is vindictive and plots with such vengeance she’s terrifying not only to her peers whom she has none that will play with her but her own father, brother and even her mother are weary of her. Of the three, the 2 men are terrified of her and her unsuspecting dangerous deeds she is happiest doling out. She is a sociopath with no conscious and her mother is the only one who’s still trying to give her the benefit of the doubt and believes that perhaps she will outgrow this misbehavior and troublesome personality she has shown to have extremely strong ties to at a young age of 9. When he father does something she is very mad about, she decides to make him lay, in this horrific and despicable manner in which she not only hurts her father she harms several others who all live within close proximity to her. The police become involved and even they are under her sadistic and pathological influence until she finally slips up on a public forum,,,, she is the scariest 9 year old I’ve ever read about and I don’t blame the father nor the brother for being terrified of her or for the father of moving out. She is a pathological psychopath
