Publisher's summary

A loving mother. A notorious murderer. They both have reasons to hide their secrets in a novel of escalating shock and suspense by New York Times bestselling author A. R. Torre.

Perla Wultz lives with her husband, Grant, and their precious daughter, Sophie, in a gated Pasadena community. Affluent, sociable, and accomplished, Perla plays the part of loving wife and mother to perfection. It seems an ideal life, if not for a decades-old crime that has become Perla’s dark and consuming secret obsession.

Twenty-three years ago, Leewood Folcrum confessed to murdering two young girls during a birthday party. Though he’s been condemned to a life sentence, his crime is not forgotten. Not by Perla, nor by an inquisitive doctoral student interviewing Folcrum for his dissertation. He’s getting the killer to open up—about his motives, his confession, and the truth of what really happened on that horrible night.

As the past and the present entwine, the deceptions behind the infamous murder begin to surface. But who’s deceiving who now? And why? And as an ingeniously twisted plan is set in motion, who will be the next to die?

Crazy ride!

This book was great for many different reasons. Never have I read a book where the main character ends up being the most revolting type of human. You pray for her downfall the entire time, but you still can’t quit reading. I agree with a previous reviewer that the snippets of pedophilia didn’t have to be included, but I understand why it was in order to produce some type of motive. Still, I would have preferred that hatred had been the motive instead of a screwed up form of jealousy. All in all, for readers with a thick stomach and love a mystery, don’t pass up on this one!

I liked the story layout

It was an interesting read but pretty predictable. I like the work from this author and I’m excited to listen to more.

Wow! Creepy but soooo good.

I really enjoyed this book. While some parts of the story were highly predictable, the suspense was really good.
