Great book!! I thoroughly enjoyed reading this one! This book had a bit of everything! It had great suspense, intrigue, action, murder, serial killers, a fantastic who done it that I did not see, and some crazy twists and turns! The storyline was so very interesting and had me glued to my Kindle! The characters were awesome! I absolutely loved the father!! I'm definitely going to look into if he has any books! What a character! I highly recommend reading this book as it was well worth reading! Thank you Netgalley and the publisher for sharing this book with me!

As an avid mystery lover I think this was quite enjoyable.
The story is about a couple, Carrie and Oliver, who plan a joint bachelor/bachelorette trip to Stanley Hotel (the hotel that inspired The Shining) and an FBI agent, Andi Castle is invited as a plus one, everything seems to be going smoothly when a murder happens and sets off the mystery.
The beginning of the book was a great hook, it quickly became difficult to put down. The two POVs of the agent and Carrie, the bride-to-be, was refreshing and made the mystery more compelling.
This book is definitely more plot driven than character driven, the mystery kept me engaged despite not connecting with the characters as much as I had hoped, but it is more a personal preference than anything. Te ending did fall a bit short for me, especially because the killer was a bit obvious but nonetheless it was still satisfying and an enjoyable read!
