Description

When a commercial artist, her stockbroker husband and their twin daughters move to Los Angeles, they unwittingly fall prey to a woman who convinces them that she is a psychic and can foresee their future.

By persuading them that she holds the key to their success and can protect them from the dangers that threaten them, she gradually takes full control over their careers, their parenting, even their sex lives, until they become her willing accomplices.

This was honestly pretty chilling and scary. It’s probably one of the only thrillers that has willingly unsettled me and made me uncomfortable but it was excellent. 5 out of 5stars it was crazy but in the best possible way!

I received this book as an ARC and this is my review. This story is amazing - it grabs the reader by the throat and hangs on until the finish. I loved it! The characters are wonderfully flawed and the twists and turns are non-stop. The best part is the reader is not sure who to believe or who is gullible or who can be trusted throughout the book. I totally recommend this book to readers who enjoy a psychological struggle with an unclear outcome.

This author has written a story that had me believing right along with the characters. It made me think. Virginia and her family are perfectly happy, when she is approached by Madeline, a psychic, who tells her things that no one could know. The story takes us down a path that is entirely possible and has probably happened to others. I found myself immersed in the story, and it kept my interest throughout...highly recommend. I received a free copy of this book and I am voluntarily leaving my review.
