Many thanks to NetGalley and Harlequin Publishing Park Row for gifting me a digital copy of the latest by a favorite author, Heather Gudenkauf - 4.5 stars rounded up for an atmospheric thriller!
In the summer of 2000, brutal murders took place at an isolated farmhouse in Iowa. Twenty years later, true crime writer Wylie Lark is staying at that same farmhouse, escaping from a troubled relationship with her son and ex, with the excuse of needing quiet time to finish her latest book. When a blizzard strikes and she finds a small child half frozen outside her door, she goes seeking answers. But someone else is looking for her too.
This is one of those stories to go into without too much information. Told in two timelines, 2000 and present, there are also additional chilling excerpts in between. The atmosphere plays a huge role in this book - from the brutal summer heat to a blizzard - and adds to the tension of the story. You may figure some things out along the way but certainly not everything and it's a wild ride. Another winner from this author - don't miss it!
