Holy! The plot twist(s). The authentic writing. Plus Part 1 and Part 2 are so different! I was so caught up with the intensity of the plot, the twists, the characters, the language that I did not want to stop reading. 
I may need to reread this one, just to see if it’s that good or did I just miss the obvious clues? I strongly believe it’s that good.

This is a really well-written, clever thriller and I only partly guessed some of the twists! Not an easy read in the sense that the subject matter is very intense.

The twists were well executed, points taken off bc it was a little too gung-ho about the police. I think the author is a former officer and I don’t care for that perspective too much, but an interesting story. It was also a little graphic
