My Review:

I received this book from the author for my honest review.

Girls are going missing and it’s up to Lore to find out who is doing it…..that is if the kidnapper doesn’t find her first.

Lorelei is just an average 16 yr old girl that happens to have a certain “gift”. She can see your darkest secrets and can take them from you if she wants. She is warned by her aunt to never use her powers b/c there are some people…..or things that will kill her or use her for their own good. She has always followed the rules until girls start to go missing in her town. Lore just can’t sit around doing nothing when she knows that she can help. So she uses her gift. Will she find the answers that she seeks or will the people she is looking for find her first.

I really liked this book. It was creepy and scary at the same time. Even though there wasn’t a lot of world building, I still liked it. It was a short fast paced book. In the beginning it kind of dragged on with all the information given at once, but we needed all the info to understand what was going on.  Ok, so I don’t want to spoil the book for anyone, so I’m just going to say that, we really get to see Lore use her gift in the second half of the book. That’s when I finally started to really get into the book. There was plenty of action and there was always a sense of doom. It was all in the name of finding out who was kidnapping all the girls in her town. Oh, and you will never figure out who it is. I thought it was everyone, but the person it actually was. It will shock you to your core.
