This book had a crazy, crazy plot. I was completely shook and couldn’t put it down in the last 50%. HOWEVER, this book has some heavy topics that are not for everyone. There are frequent mentions of drugs, SA, and other dark themes that made sense considering the motive of the crime but still was an aspect of the book I didn’t enjoy. Also, there is some profanity. Overall a pretty good read with some really good characters. I know it’s the first of a trilogy, but I would image the next books are darker so I’m not sure I’ll read them 🤷‍♀️
