I loved the final twist in Pinborough's Behind Her Eyes. This novel isn't quite as good but it's still a solid read. Lisa seems like a normal woman with a normal middle class life. She has a job she likes, a best friend she can count on, and a teenage daughter she's raising by herself. But as we go back in time, we begin to realize there is something dark in Lisa's past and it's coming back to haunt her and her daughter. Ava, the teenager, is a typical teen looking for attention and she finds it in an online relationship. Lisa's past is exposed when, to the horror of all around her, a picture of her and Ava appears in a local newspaper. This story turns crazy about halfway and has a wild finish. I also want to warn that parts of this book deal with violence against a child.
