I really enjoyed it, the end of the book just felt rushed. I feel like we had more to hear from Nina. The story line with Ryan was also a loose end that was never resolved for readers. Overall it was very well written and I couldn't put it down.

kind of a slow start- got better- only to have a unsatifyingly quick and abrupt wrap up. ending feels like an after thought and too rushed.

Once again, Mary Kubica surprises me! The ending was sad, but I look forward to reading the next MK book! I like surprise endings!
