An idyllic descriptive opening pulls the reader in and sets the stage for many intriguing scenes to follow, while slowly but respectfully introducing you to the book’s two possible main identifiable characters. Flowing conversations and interesting paragraphs do make for good reading but for a thriller it takes a while to build momentum, which creates a danger of losing interest. But at the end of the chapter momentum regains, and the reader is definitely left with a sense of wonderment to find out what happens next.

It starts out a bit slow but soon we find that something is about to happen, something pretty scarey that Bill will have a hand in. The dialog was interesting leading me on down that path of anger building. All in all, look forward to finding out what creepy thing happens.Great beginning!
