Jar of Hearts

 Jar of Hearts

by Jennifer Hillier 

This is the story of three best friends: one who was murdered, one who went to prison, and one who's been searching for the truth all these years . . .
At age of 16 Angela Wong―one of the most popular girls in school―disappeared without a trace. But fourteen years later, Angela Wong's remains are discovered in the woods near Angela’s best friend Georgina’s home. Now Georgina is under arrest for helping her then-boyfriend Calvin also known as the famous serial killer “sweetbay strangler” cover it up. And it's one of her other close friends from high school, Kaiser Brody, who arrests her.

While Geo is sent to prison for her part, Calvin escapes from custody and is on the run. Geo, now thirty-five, is about to be released from prison to try and start over. But someone has started killing people and dumping their bodies in her old neighborhood, with some of the markers of the missing Sweetbay Strangler—her old boyfriend Calvin. Are these killings some kind of message from Calvin? Are they some of revenge? Is she herself now in danger?

Wow. This is story is amazing. I could not stop listening to the audiobook and I was hooked from the beginning. it also has some really uncomfortable scenes like prison rape/Abuse and gruesome murders..and those who are sensitive to this type of topic might find this book a step too far.

The writing style, character development, and the whole plot were well executed. The author has created the entire story more enjoyable adding thriller &mystery perfectly by adding lots of twists and turns. Just when I thought I had this book figured out, a new twist and a new turn, let me know I was nowhere near to knowing what the heck was going on in this book.

I highly recommend this novel for anyone who is into the Thriller/Mystery Genre and  I’ll definitely be picking up more books from this Author!
