This is an excellent psychological/thriller that's very twisted and with a touch of humor..There are two storylines going on that are very intense and kept you on edge all the way to the shocking, ironic ending..No matter how many times I thought I figured out who the killer was it took another turn..Both plots flowed easily but the author was still able to keep you confused by using identical twins...They both have very different sides to their personality and throughout the story you don't really know which one is good or evil...Great in-depth characterization of all the players...Bipolar Disorder has two sides and when off your medication it can't be controlled..You flip between excessive mania and deep depression..Both suffer from PTSD, due to a severe, abusive dysfunctional family...I apppreciate that the author took time with perfect detailed depictions of people suffering with all the "mental illnesses" listed above...There is a new psycho killer on the lose in Shingle Beach, South Carolina and because it is happening so close to home Heather has one of her "cursed visions".They are the strongest, detailed visions that she has ever had and they make her physically sick...Heather, her best friend Sammi work closely with the Police Department to try and catch this killer before he strikes again..At the same time you meet twins Margo Cruise and Tessa Delargo which are mirror images of each other but that's where it ends...One lives a life of luxury and the other has a hard life living in a Mafia crime family..They have never shared that unique, bond that identical twins do and both detest each other...Yet, they do have two things in common..They both want to runaway from their lives and leave everything behind...Plus, a sadistic killer has both made them the next targets...No one will be able to guess this unbelievable ending....I couldn't...
