Mystery/Thriller -- 4 1/2 stars
Elle is a foster kid with a father in prison. He has a plan for her to prove he is innocent. It begins with befriending Charlotte, who they believe is responsible for his incarceration, by turning up on her porch during a storm and asking for help. Everything seems to be working...or is it? ----- This is one head spinning mystery. Characters with flaws and secrets, good pacing, and so many twists you'll be dizzy. And in the middle of the vortex is Elle, a pregnant teen who is either the player or the played. Identifying the villain (is there a villain?) is an exercise in futility. You'll know when Ms. Montgomery is ready for you to know, but first she has 439 pages to mess with your mind.
