My Review:

This book is really a roller  coaster but initially it was very slow as story gets started after reading 116 pages which tested my patient level and of course the font is also very small but if I neglect these two negative point ,I found this book worth reading .Very beautifully described the condition of a woman who lives alone ,how pathetic her life become after she saw the murder. How she used to badly miss her family. The end was so unpredictable ,loads of suspense .The book holds the readers till the end in spite of its slow start. At one point I believed that Anna has seen something but after reading few more lines I started believe that she might suffer from some sort of disease which made her to see unreal things ,I mean some sort of disorder as it was so convincing. Each character in the story has something important to play.The Book is not centric to only one character .I really liked the ending very much. Lots of twist and turns .I have experienced really I good mystery thriller.

 My Ratings: 4/5
