Story4 out of 5 stars 161
During a superstorm, Holly Boswell receives a panicked call from her sister, Vivian: Come get me...There’s somebody coming. But when Holly arrives at a Long Island marina, there’s only her sister’s abandoned car. Vivian is gone. It’s all eerily familiar. Holly and Vivian used to play hide-and-seek as children. It was a reprieve from the mental abuses of their parents, psychology professors who raised the siblings as if it were research. Decades later, Holly is reminded of their childhood games.

Although I found the book predictable and the characters lackluster, what really turned me off to this book were the accents of the narrators. As a native Long Islander, I assure you the accents of Eve and Archie are more indicative of a Brooklynite and Det. Rigbys accent is more reminiscent of a Bostonian. The ending was a let down and felt like the author just gave up trying to tie everything together.

I'll admit the beginning is a bit convoluted and difficult to buy, but hang in there. All shall be revealed.Well worth the 'read.'

There's no mystery, no dead ends or surprise characters. Sit back and enjoy the ride. A very well written book and equally well read.
