“Simply existing wasn’t enough for me. In order to live life the way it was meant to be experienced, I had to push past my own boundaries and embrace every adventure that came my way.”
Wow... I was hooked from that paragraph!
Dr Danielle is a therapist with three different patients, each vastly different. All while Dr D feels one of her patients is stalking her!
Not giving any spoilers, but I loved it. I was intrigued by the therapy sessions and the Alice in Wonderland backstory !
A different kind of book for Steena Holmes but I like this style !

This was a fantastic book that I devoured in one sitting. The mystery and the characters were wonderfully written. I highly recommend this book if you love psychological thrillers and mysteries.

I really wanted to enjoy this book, especially since the previous reviewers spoke so highly of it but I was left very disappointed. I found the story to be very off the whole time and it felt like everyone was living in a magical Alice in Wonderland city that was too unbelievable to be plausible.. The only thing I enjoyed were the last few pages.

Wow, Sheena this was a great book. Every time I thought I knew who did it, you would throw in a twist and I would think it was someone else. If you like mystery thrillers this is a must read. Thank you Steena Holmes and Net Galley for giving me an opertunity to read an advance reader copy.

SERIAL KILLER
Dr. Danielle Rycroft suspects one of her therapy patients is a serial killer in an intense psychological thriller that will blow your mind.

WILD RIDE!
I’d initially found the patient sessions completely inauthentic, based on my past experience as a psychotherapist. I also disliked all of the characters with their irritating emotional wounds. But I hung in and I’m glad I did because the plot explodes, explaining these “failings” in a way that will gobsmack you. I won’t reveal details. You’ll just have to take the wild ride with THE PATIENT yourself.

Thanks to Steena Holmes, Lake Union Publishing and NetGalley for the review copy. Opinions are mine.

Definitely an I can’t put it down kind of read. I did have it figured out early on but kept turning page after page with a slight bit of doubt. I have always loved this authors books and she has taken on a new road with this one and it does not disappoint. Thanks to Netgalley and the Publisher for the ARC

A community is terrified when a serial killer streaks, killing parents while leaving their children sleeping safely in their beds. Danielle Rycroft is worried she may know who the killer is, that it may be one of the troubled clients she counsels. Knowing she cannot break doctor patient confidentiality, she turns to a friend on the local police force and her own therapist for guidance, never knowing that she may be confiding in the wrong person

I could not put this book down and stayed up entirely too late to finish it. I don’t even have the proper words to describe it. Whew. Just read it. Read it right now!
