Strong start, excellent third act, but lord did it drag in the middle. Even on my commute where I'm essentially a captive audience, I grew to resent Cass and rather root for her decline (I might be a little dead inside). Turned around in the end, and even proved me wrong

on my thoughts on John, though I did find the actual murderer to be a bit contrived
