The Book was an interesting one and i think it should be put into Movie,Let people who are not book lovers learn about it to....the story was all about:
Detective Jack Kendall and his assistant, Stacy Young, receive a disturbing call that opens the door to a missing persons case that has tugged at the heartstrings of Mississippi and the entire nation. Now Jack and Stacy hold the key to the most shocking, complex, and emotional case of their careers, and they are all in!

As the only heir of Joan Chandler, Tyler Chandler stands to inherit everything a man could want, including Pearl River Mansion"€"a 450-acre, post-Civil War estate that sits at the end of one of the many fingers of the Pearl River. Tyler's mother makes a game out of controlling people by trading on her wealth, but Tyler refuses her money"€"which always comes with strings"€"and struggles to make it on his own, trading instead on his intelligence and exceptional good looks. But he's not as good at the game as she is and finds himself trapped in a marriage that infuriates his mother.

It is a destructive battle of wills, and just when Tyler believes he's winning, fat intercedes... And for the second time in her life, Joan finds a purpose for the alligators that have kept her well away from the water's edge"€"and the stakes keep rising.

It has an interesting end

This sounds like a perfect “edge of the seat” thriller to add to my ever-growing list of want-to-reads.
It’s a perfect reminder that all families have multiple layers, and things on the surface are not always as they appear.
It’s definitely going on my list.

I would love to tackle this engrossing book head on. It seems very captivating and spine-chilling. It being a 500 paged book gives it even more of a intense insight. Also, the characters have there own appealing ways on how to go about the situation rather than Rachael giving her thoughts on how she feels. Everything seems so one-sided. This is pulling me in more and more can’t wait to read!

This book sounds exactly like the books I love. Full of surprise and suspense. Even the length of the book is exciting. I love books which go into great length to get you to know and love or hate the characters.

What happens to Rachel sounds like a sinister and scary scenario that is perfect for anyone who enjoys thriller novels. Joan also sounds like a great antagonistic character. Thanks for the review
