I really tried with this book. It was a struggle to stay invested, unfortunately.

Tudor is one of my favorite authors so it is with a heavy heart that I rate this three stars. I just didn’t really feel interested in any of the characters or the plot. Maybe I will pick this up and try again at a later time because objectively, this book has all the makings of an enjoyable read.

Not sure what I expected when I read the blurb for this book, but goodness not that. The horror elements, alongside a futuristic viral apocalypse really threw me through a loop.

The storyline was fairly easy to follow and generally I enjoyed the writing. I think I mistook the book to be more of a crime thriller, and as such I was not mentally prepared. But the plot was excellent and the characters stories were intriguing, if a little predictable. Regardless, an interesting easy read.
