This book was hard for me to put down. It was a very intriguing read following Hudson Bell through his days of trying to help locate missing children. When it came to the case of Darren I certainly thought I had it all figured out and was surprised to find out that I was wrong.
There is some serious build up in this story that kept me flipping through the pages to find out what happened next. Every time I thought I had things figured out there would be another twist in the story. Closing in on the end there was yet another huge, unexpected twist that completely blew my mind!
Ody demonstrates some superb writing skills in this book. All the unexpected twists, the heart break, and the strong characters. It's fabulous! Hudson really stood out and was a very likeable character. I cannot wait to check out more in this series. A Lifetime Ago is easily one of my favorite reads for this year! If you enjoy thrillers and twists you definitely need to add this to your TBR list.
