This book had me gripped from the start. The plot was intriguing and different to anything I have read before. Although some bits of the main characters backstory were hard to read, it made you root for her even more. I was on the edge of my seat throughout reading, not knowing what was going to happen next! I was slightly underwhelmed by the ending, hence the 4 stars, but still very much enjoyed the read. I would recommend this to anyone who enjoys a tense read! 
Thank you to NetGalley and the publishers for the ARC.
