A book with a well-developed cast of characters, pleasantly surprising plot twists, and a bunch of secrets sounds like one I can enjoy. There is nothing I like in a book as much as visibly well-developed characters. I am, therefore, looking forward to reading this. Great review!

This family story seems like a thrilling one. I wonder how Tyler will go about raising his kids. Nice review.

What a chilling, gripping family drama thriller! What does Joan hope to achieve by "raising Rachel as on of their own?" I wonder.... And as parents those who show favouritism, a.k.a. Tyler, my question is: what good does that ever do? I'm really looking forward to reading this book. Thanks for the review

It is the mark of an exceptional author to leave the reader thinking about the characters long after the book has ended. This sounds like a truly immersive read and gripping family drama come mystery novel. Thanks for the great review!

I also read this book and wanted to see what the person who was chosen for the review had to say. You did an excellent job reviewing this book. You were able to delve into the characters nicely without giving away the whole story. A nice learning experience for me.

This is a thriller Story which guides us how people cleverly change the documentation & others related bios but at the same time, it was also expressed in the story how intelligently in very challenging conditions & environment the detector exposed the truth.
Very interesting story book

Crime thriller stories are the best thing ever. It is quite long but sure the development of the story required it. I really liked your review, maybe I'll read this book. But for now I'll add it to book shelf❤️
