Anna falls off a cliff taking a selfie but is that truly what happend 

Katie was the last one to see her
 This book was so amazing and so detailed makes you feel like you're apart of the case 

Tanner bisop  is the boyfriend 
 John james smith really bothered me. With his assaults they go in detail so this is definitely  a warning to anyone who picks this up 

Two people on a cliff one dies no witnesses 

Katie and the evidence matches up alot is she the murderer? She admitted to having worse thought then the boy in canada
 Magda gave the vibes like she definitely  wasn't done killing that she's possibly the one who killed anna 

Tanner bishop annas ex ends up being questioned  as his car was at the sunny days camp the same time Anna was killed
 He stole a car to see Anna to try to let her know he never cheated but by the time he got there the bus was unloading and he turned back by that time Anna was dead. 

Herman and magdas  situation  is brought up again and we learn that Herman hanged himself because of magda blaming everything on him even though she mainly had most of the idea to murder the innocent victims  and she never fufilled her plea deal while Herman got the death penately even though I think It should of been the other way around Herman should have had time but not death magda should of never got a plea deal and been executed 

I liked that we got to see majories  life at the senior home 

We learn that Sara is the daughter of magda and Herman and that's why Sara is so scared of Katie knowing her past and her dark thoughts and Sara had the Scar on her wrist.
 Sara has flashbacks from the night her parents tried to lure a women to "help with a car" and ended up trying to kill her while Sara (hailey) was in the seat right beside the women who was the only living victim that got away
 Majorie and george both let Sara know about her trauma/ to stay away from strangers to keep her safe
 Sara knew everything  by age 10
 Sara had asked "When I grow up will I hurt people like they did"
 Majorie didn't know how to respond so she told her no but as Sara grew majorie started to worry more 

Sara goes through a box in her attic and she found a box that had the news article about her parents killings
 We learn about the concerns Sara has because of her past 

Later on we meet more suspects including marilyn hamilton who watches birds at early hours and was there at the park when Anna passed away she doesn't seem to be guilty 

Ryan goes on  tell tale hearts 
 to talk about magda and the killings  in hope to find magdas whereabouts and Sara in hopes they are together. Ryan gets multiple calling in about the case some are saying magda should be free and alot are congratulating  Ryan for trying to find magda and her whereabouts as they believe she should of done more time there is one person who assumes magda has died under the name sharon ellen vernay which wasn't proven
 

Sara definitely  needed to calm down and stop thinking her daughters  so bad because of her own worries and her trauma
 Bella aka magda came and tried to steal Katie from Sara 
 I feel most of the police officers who were on this case should of been fired. 

Ryan came at the time that Sara and magda were fighting Sara fighting for her life.
 We learn magda was the murderer  of her biologicals daughter, kids babysitter hoping she could get closer to sara and katie this story definitely  was a 5 star read
