Lucy used to be called Julia. She used to have a twin brother. She used to have a life that wasn't spent hiding her identity. Now, she lives in a new town with a new name, and she might be falling for one of the most charming guys in school. But Lucy isn't as safe from her past as she thought, and it will take more than a name change for people to forget what happened.

DAMAGE DONE is hands down one of my favorite 2015 reads. Amanda Panitch expertly combines suspense, an unreliable narrator, and mystery into one fast-paced novel. Lucy's story is utterly absorbing, and the writing is quick, to the point, and always saves the best for last. This is a plot readers won't soon forget, and a story that will blow minds.

One of the elements that makes DAMAGE DONE so extraordinary are the layers. No character is one-dimensional, and shades of gray cover almost every morality angle. The insights into the psychologist's mind are both disturbing and fascinating. No character is to be trusted and that takes the suspense even higher. The ending thankfully answers all questions.

I can't recommend DAMAGE DONE highly enough. Amanda Panitch shows incredible talent in this story, and readers will be eager for more as soon as they finish. The plot is a perfect combination of slow, psychological build up and breathless suspense scenes that will keep readers on their toes and up until far into the night trying to finish this book.
