I enjoyed the quick pace of this book and felt it read kind of like a TV show? Example being Netflix's The Fall, where you have the suspects perspective along with the detectives. Reginald King makes for an incredibly creepy individual and where I normally can find empathy, he was very difficult to feel for (probably done on purpose).
And as a final note regarding the ending, I felt like murdering Billie was pretty gratuitous?? And didnt really fit, was brushed over and then you're only like 15 pages from the end and just left so unsatisfied by everything... but it did not take away from the build up and characters progression up to that point which is why I docked 1 star but it remains at 4 stars.
And as a final note regarding the ending,
Graphic: Child death, Confinement, Death, Gore, Mental illness, Torture, Violence, Blood, Kidnapping, Medical trauma, Stalking, Murder, and Pregnancy
