The story opening was good. The plot steadily began unfolding and building.This novel was quite well-written. It was about a young widow starting a newlife in a small town. This was the first time she had been away from family andall that was familiar to her. Just her and her young daughter making a new lifefor themselves until now. Now her young daughter was taken from her pre-schooland the police and FBI were accusing her! While they should be finding the kid-napperthey were interrogating her! She was their main suspect.Questions arose, nobody seemed to believe her except for her parents who cameshorty after she called themShe suffered from an anxiety disorder. Could she have done something with her childand not remembered? She hadn't been taking her medication for a couple of days.The suspense picks up and builds as more events take place. It peaks at an apex thenends abruptly. The ending left this reader feeling slightly let down. It felt too precipitous.I still felt it deserving of a strong four star rating. The epilogue later helped give it a finality.
