This may actually shade a bit towards a 3-star rating but I finished it a couple of weeks ago so if faded recall is affecting my review it's all on me. I found it difficult to get into the story because it took me awhile to put together that the protagonist had memory loss about the events surrounding the loss of her daughter, compound by severe postpartum depression. That slower start (for me) also made it more challenging to find the necessary empathy for the lead character. However, once I engaged more fully with the book, it did move at a nice pace, with good character development, and some nice plot twists along the way. And I did find myself pulling hard for our heroine. The ending felt a little bit rushed, but overall I can strongly recommend this for mystery/thriller fans.
