jessica's Reviews > The Trap

this is a quick and easy read with a good ending, but its probably my least favorite book by CRH so far.

i think the idea is interesting and the fact this is loosely inspired by the series of women who went missing in ireland in the 90s had me intrigued, but i dont feel as if this fully delivers what it promises.

the title is called ‘the trap’ and the synopsis claims the story is about a woman risking everything to catch the person who took her sister, but none of that is really the focus of the story. its mainly about introducing all of the characters, how they are impacted by the missing women, and the police investigation. lucy trying to “trap” the culprit is only like 10% of the story. so i wish that had gotten more page time and played a bigger part in the plot.

but, like i said, this is a quick and easy read with a good ending. i just think it could have been better if the main focus of the story was different.

thank you, blackstone publishing, for the ARC.
