I loved the dual character perspectives. There were times that we, the reader, knew what was happening before the other characters. I found myself rooting for both Lee and Hazel a happy ending. Parts of this story had me questioning what was the truth and what was the lie!
This book had everything I LOVE in a thriller.. mystery, suspense, plot twists, unreliable characters, drama, short cliffhanger chapters! I would totally recommend to anyone that likes a good thriller that is equal parts, plot and character driven!

There were some plot threads though that did feel unnecessary and like they didn’t go anywhere. I also wasn’t in love with the ending. It felt unfinished. I was surprised when I saw how little was left on the second last chapter.
Overall still a great book though.

Note: I'd just like to mention that I admire how the author takes her time to humanize homeless people and anyone else who is in a situation in which they feel trapped rather that be literally or figuratively. I also admire how she took the topic of BDSM delicately and didn't dehumanize it and prioritize that acts like those are only harmful when they're nonconsensual.
