Now the horror that one of the victims is her childhood best friend crushes her and makes her want to fight and figure out what is going on.
Hide by Lisa Gardner is a page turner. Unlike Alone, the first book in the series, this book kept my attention and wasn’t predictable. There were great twist and turns and kept me guessing until the last page. If thrillers and mystery’s are your type of book then this is a series for you! I’ve heard they only get better…
