The whispers may scare you . . .
In River Glen, Oregon, rumors are spreading about the Babysitter Stalker. One victim was fatally stabbed. A second fell--or was pushed--from a rooftop deck. High school sophomore Jamie Whelan, scheduled to watch the Ryerson twins tonight, isn't worried. She's more interested in the party she'll go to later, as soon as her sister Emma arrives to take over babysitting duties. But nothing goes according to plan . . .
But the truth . . .
Twenty years after that night's vicious attack, Emma remains scarred in body and mind. Jamie, back in River Glen after their mother's death, still feels guilty over trading places that fateful evening. Then suddenly another young babysitter is attacked. Jamie, with a teenage daughter of her own, fears something much more twisted than coincidence.
Is even more terrifying . . .
Is this new nightmare connected with those long-ago crimes? Emma's fractured memories may contain the answer. But the deeper Jamie digs, the darker the secrets waiting to be uncovered--and avenged . . .

Mehso-so

This book was too long with just too much going on. It took me forever to finish it because it couldn‘t hold my interest. There were so many parts that felt drawn out and unnecessary. The premise is good-someone is attacking babysitters now and twenty years ago. Could it be the same person? It is advertised as a thriller but I found nothing very exciting or thrilling about it. Thanks to Zebra and #NetGalley for providing me with this arc.

JoScho @guinsgirlreads did you finish this one yet? 5y
guinsgirlreads @JoScho No 😬. I was struggling with it so I picked up a couple physical books to take a break and then I‘ll go back. 5y
JoScho @guinsgirlreads ugh yes! It took me forever to finish it and it felt like a chore. 5y

Next #NetGalley read! I have high hopes for this one because I read one that she did with Lisa Jackson once and it was unputdownable!
