It had a VERY slow start. I understand why some people didn't pushed through with it. But halfway through the book there was a change of pace and it got me intrigued into finishing it. If you don't feel intrigued halfway through, maybe the book isn't for you. The final quarter of the book was fast paced and I'm actually glad I finished it.
I only gave it 3.25 stars cause I kinda liked the ending but I know I won't be rereading it.
I recommend this if you've been reading thriller for a long time or you're fine with slow pacing. But if you're looking for popcorn thrillers, this isn't it.

As far as characters, I hated them all (except Alice). Even Michael. Yes I felt bad for him at times but then at other times he gave me the creeps just as much as Reb and Momma.
The last thing I have to say is I wonder how someone can actually think of these things and write about it ?! I know it’s fiction. I know it’s her career, but I have to be honest, if Ania Ahlborn was my family or friend, I think I’d be really afraid of her.
