The way I hate Jack with every fibre of my being shows me that B. A. Paris can write the hell out of a character!
Millie is a hero, love her! And I knew I was going to like Esther.
I would have liked the ending to maybe have a bit more substance and shock factor, but it gets 5 stars from me anyway!
Favourite book of 2024 so far.

It's dark. I don't mind darkness, in fact, I typically like a psychological horror/thriller book. However, this was too straightforward and lacked any suspense. And this main character was not getting that he wanted to rape her disabled sister and put off getting out of the situation until the absolute last second. Is that where the suspense was? I didn't love this book.
