At this point I'm the 3rd reader to give a rating---so before my rating it was at a 2.8 so someone didn't like it but didn't leave any remarks
I'll stay in the middle for this one, it is written in a format that I'm very tired of--before/after, then/now etc.
As one reviewer said it as at least 3 POV chapters, some going back 30 years to a long ago unsolved murder, well that's fine but was mostly just a boring wordy not well written story
I skipped a lot to finally get to a point that I knew where it was going and 'who dunnit', the pages I skipped I didn't go back to try to 'find' anything I missed
I'll probably try another by Ryder

Meredith thinks she is the reincarnation of Cara, a young woman murdered 30 years ago. It's her belief because that is what her mother believed before she walked out of the mental hospital and disappeared a very long time ago. Her mother, Becca, was so convinced she videotaped her young daughter.
So what was the tie between Becca and Cara .. and now Meredith? Is it true ..or just the ramblings of her mentally ill mother?
To find the truth Meredith must search through a past that is not her own. The problem is, she's not the only one lookingâ¦
This is a debut novel, very well written. Characters are fully defined and unforgettable. The story is told from several view points. Chapters alternate from 30 years ago and the people involved in that time period to today with Meredith searching for the truth.
Twists and turns will keep the reader turning the pages. The ending was quite a surprise! This is definitely a psychological thriller worth reading ... and an author to watch.
