A real page-turner. Very well crafted, with great pacing and plenty of suspense. The portrayal of the emotional trauma experienced by Nathalie and her family is well done and realistic. The mystery in the story has much more to do with the events that Nathalie cannot recall than the pursuit of her attacker, who is an unknown until the end of the book. This is not a police procedural mystery.I felt the book missed five stars for a couple of reasons. Some of Nathalie's thoughts and actions stretched credibility a bit, considering her extreme physical injuries, emotional shock, and age. I also don't think her attacker could have stood up, much less walked, after being injured the way he was near the end. Lastly, the book could benefit from another editing pass. There were not a lot of errors, just enough to be noticed. These minor issues did not detract from my enjoyment of the story. I would recommend this book for anyone that enjoys a good suspense tale.
