Problem Child by Victoria Helen Stone

Problem Child (A Jane Doe Thriller)

by Victoria Helen Stone

She’s cold, calculating, and can deceive with a smile. Jane Doe is back in the Amazon Charts bestselling series—and this time she’s met her match.

After a brutal childhood, Jane Doe has been permanently wired to look after herself and only herself. Now, looking next to normal, Jane has a lover and a job. But she hasn’t lost her edge. It sharpens when she hears from her estranged family.

Jane’s deeply troubled sixteen-year-old niece, Kayla, has vanished, and no one seems to care. Neither does Jane. Until she sees a picture of Kayla and recognizes herself in the young girl’s eyes. It’s the empty stare of a sociopath.

Jane knows what vengeful and desperate things Kayla is capable of. Only Jane can help her—by being drawn into Kayla’s dark world. And no one’s more aware than Jane just how dangerous that can be.

*I received a free copy of Problem Child. This has in no way influenced my voluntary review which is honest and unbiased.*

Problem Child was even better than Jane Doe. And I have to say, that even with her sociopathic personality, I just love Jane. She's extremely raw. And she's so honest - because she just worry too much about societal norms. And that's part of why she's so amazing! We should all have a little more Jane in us.

Of course, Jane is very good at pretending so as to not be seen as too 'different'. And she's very intelligent, which totally helps her in all she does. I just love that she's a highly functional person, extremely sharp at reading other people's body language, then making informed decisions as to how to reach her goal.
