5 stars!
Thanks to NetGalley, the publisher and author for the opportunity to read and review this book!
I really liked this one...it's a different kind of thriller as well as a great character study. The book and the world revolves around Devon - an extremely gifted gymnast. After a childhood accident, she went on to excel in the world of gymnastics and is on track to go to the Olympics. Of course, behind every child star is a family - parents who give up everything to make sure that their child has everything possible to achieve those dreams. Siblings who are always in the background. And whose dreams are they really? How well do we know our children? Add all of that drama to the fact that a crime happens to someone they all know - who did it? And who knows?
This book kept me hostage - it is subtle in the feelings it provokes. But that creepy feeling you get just waiting for something to happen is strong in this book and adds another layer to all the characters. Even if you think you figure it out along the way, it takes nothing away from the suspense. I even learned quite a lot about the gymnastics world.
This was just great writing - mark me as a fan.
