Jamie Kendal lost her twin brother, Trevor, long ago at summer camp. She has suppressed the memories of what happened that fateful night, along with drowning her pain and loss in bottles of booze. No matter how many therapy sessions she goes to, she cannot remember what happened at Kring Camp that night.
Jamie returns home after her mother takes a tumble down the stairs to the town she grew up in, her memories from that lost time become more frequent and intense. Is someone trying to kill her and her mother? Will she ever find out what happened to her brother at summer camp so long ago?
I look forward to reading more from Eva. I received this book from her in exchange for my honest review.

Unexpressed emotions will never die. They are buried alive and will come forth later in uglier ways. – Sigmund Freud
Jamie Kendal is a polygraph examiner working with three other investigators in Arlington, Virginia. She deals with criminals in her line of work, some of whom don’t like her findings, plus she’s being stalked by an ex-fiance who won’t take no for an answer.
She is called back to her small hometown when her mother takes a tumble down her stairs. She’s been having panic attacks and is drinking too much, trying to cope with her current problems plus the fact she can’t remember what happened one summer at camp 18 years ago when her twin brother disappeared.
This was an exciting psychological thriller. I guessed part of the answers of what had happened and was still happening to Jamie but not all.
This was a real page-turner for me and I found myself staying awake longer than planned “to finish one more chapter.”
I received this book from Craven Ink Press through Net Galley in the hopes that I would read it and leave an unbiased review.

Lately, I have really started enjoying psychological thrillers. There is something about getting into your mind and many times, I wonder how or why people do the things that they do that are “out of the norm” or what I would consider normal.
Jamie had a traumatic event in her youth and her mind blocked it out. However, her mind must have decided that now was the time for things to be revealed as to what happened that summer at camp when her brother was killed. The book is told from multiple POV, and while it was quite a few voices, I felt like the story flowed well and I didn’t have trouble keeping up.
As more details were revealed and characters introduced (after Jamie went back to her hometown), I kept wondering who was involved. I incorrectly guessed one character, despite the slimy feeling I felt from this character. I was very surprised when the truth was finally revealed and how it played out. I never would have guessed who was involved and why.
This is an author to watch in m book. She weaves a tale that kept me spellbound, wanting more. We give this 4 paws up.
