Sumár recenzie
Kniha sleduje Annabel (Bel) Priceovú, ktorej matka Rachel pred 16 rokmi záhadne zmizla, a počas natáčania dokumentu sa Rachel náhle vráti s neuveriteľným príbehom, takže Bel pátra na vlastnú päsť, či je pravdivý a či nie je nebezpečná. Holly Jackson vyniká v tvorbe napätej atmosféry a v citlivom dávkovaní informácií, vďaka čomu sú zvraty pôsobivé a príbeh drží čitateľovu pozornosť. Medzi slabšie stránky recenzentka radí niektoré postavy, ktoré jej liezli na nervy, najmä Rachel, a miestami rozvláčnejšiu druhú polovicu. Napriek tomu hodnotí knihu ako pútavú a originálnu, hoci by mohla byť o niečo kratšia.
