(4.1) | Keine | Ten years ago: On a warm summer's evening, four childhood friends gather at a slumber party... Before dawn breaks, the nightmare begins. One of them dies. One of them is a killer. Liz was the bubbly girl-next-door. She could never have imagined how everything would fall apart. Sami was the clever one, quieter than the others. She was meant to keep all their secrets... Amy had the voice of an angel, destined for Hollywood. She would never make it there. Mo was leader of the group, charismatic and protective. But she was not who she appeared to be... They were childhood friends, on the cusp of the rest of their lives. They'd shared everything with each other. Or so they thought... Until one of them died. Today: Liz tries not to think about the night that destroyed their lives. She focuses on her beloved husband and their sweet-eyed daughter. But when she receives a note, there's no more running away: "I'm back. Did you miss me?" A wave of dizziness crashes over her. Her best friend can't be back. She's dead. So who sent the note? What do they know? And, most terrifying of all, are they planning to make her pay for what happened...? A totally gripping, heart-stopping thriller about twisted friendships, dark pasts, and secrets to die for...

There are multiple points of view and it continually jumps back and forth in time. Hollinger writes it in such a way that I didn’t find it confusing, unlike some other suspense/thrillers that I have read that were written in this style. I did find myself skimming at times when it came to Liz in the present day going on about her kid and life.
But even with the skimming, Hollinger kept the characters interesting enough and the twists and turns coming, so I continued to read late into the night. While there wasn’t anything too earth shattering (and the cousins were not shocking at all), I did find the last chapter with the neighbor pretty chilling. ( )
