The lives of the rich and stylish often grate but I was fully in for celebrity hair stylish Marin's turbulent existence following the abduction of her young son.
This book went in unexpected directions and despite some eyebrow-raising coincidences kept me on board for the whole journey.
Many thanks to the author, publisher, and NetGalley for the copy.

Koster wants Jessie's therapist father, Nathan (Michael Douglas), to somehow coax traumatized teen Elisabeth (Brittany Murphy) into divulging a mysterious code number that will lead the criminals to a hidden jewel worth a fortune. Unfortunately, it may be impossible to convince the delusional Elisabeth to cooperate: she hasn't spoken in 10 years.
Its a really good film, highly recordmend it.

The story lines are different but same characters are used.
The chapters are short, but captivating
This book was an amazing read and I can't wait to read more of Cavanaghs books as he is now my favourite author.
I recommend if you love a good, dark thriller
