Kept me guessing the whole way through, even after I thought I had guessed what was happening! I did get confused on a couple things towards the end but I still think it wrapped up nicely

When you think you’ve figured this book out, you haven’t. The last quarter of the book alone is worth 5 stars. Every loose end is buttoned up and although super sad, the characters get the redemptions they deserve.

Wow. This book is absolutely incredible. It was thrilling and enticing all the way through to the end. One of the best plot and character combinations I've read in quite some time. Highly recommend for those who aren't afraid of letting their mind wander into dark places in search of answers to this mystery.
