Summary

A shocking murder carries echoes of the past for a psychologist in a startling novel of suspense by a Washington Post and Amazon Charts bestselling author.

Psychologist and criminologist Dr. Gretchen White is a specialist in antisocial personality disorders and violent crimes. She’s helped solve enough prominent cases for detective Patrick Shaughnessy that her own history is often overlooked: Gretchen is an admitted sociopath once suspected of killing her aunt. Shaughnessy still thinks Gretchen got away with murder. It’s not going to happen again.

When a high-profile new case lands on Shaughnessy’s desk, it seems open and shut. Remorseless teenager Viola Kent is accused of killing her mother. Amid stories of childhood horrors and Viola’s cruel manipulations, the bad seed has already been found guilty by a rapt public. But Gretchen might be seeing something in Viola no one else does: herself.

If Viola is a scapegoat, then who really did it? And what are they hiding? To find the truth, Gretchen must enter a void that is not only dark and cold-blooded, but also frighteningly familiar.

The two lead characters are extremely good. The plot twists and turns keeping you guessing until the end. I particularly like the dual narration, it gives the book that bit extra. I hope this is the start of a series of books as the potential is there.

A good story

New to Brianna Labuskes and the series and I really enjoyed this introduction to Dr. Gretchen White! Such a unique character, yet as the book develops she becomes quite relatable and normal!

The writing is clever and razor sharp! I enjoyed the back and forth timelines which built the world and fuelled the suspense. The characters are well developed, especially Gretchen and Marconi. I liked their relationship/ banter!

Excellent dual narration by Kate Marcin and Chris Andrew Ciulla. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

An unusual yet interesting plot with plenty of darkness. A well written sneak peek into the mind of a sociopath! Looking forward to the rest of the series.

Excellent start to the series!
