My thoughts

Millie was thirsty for revenge. After being framed by her twin sister Eve for the murder of Eve's husband (a murder she didn't commit), Millie was out for blood. Upon her release from jail, Millie saw that Eve has the perfect life, a beautiful home, friends and spa days. Millie. feeling robbed of having a life by being wrongfully accused and serving a jail sentence, wants Eve's perfect life. Except, everything that glitters is not gold and Millie is getting more than she bargains for when she tries to infiltrate' Eve's life.

This book was such a page turner. I enjoyed it very much and was eager to see how it ended.. The ending however was such a surprise that I think that this has to be one of the best endings I have read in a long time as I did not expect that at all. I do not want to go into too much details about the book because I do not want to spoil it.. I must say though that Emily Shiner did a great job in creating Gareth and Mya. These two were really sinister and evil. I really enjoyed reading them. While reading about Millie I was really curious to see how she ended up. Readers you would not expect it at all. 

In all this was a great thriller / crime novel and I would highly recommend this title.
