I felt this book had a few parts that lagged a bit, but I really enjoyed the story and the intensity of some of the scenes. There was quite a confusing part for me when characters swapped and I really don't know what part was the present and what was the past. It kind of melded together without indication. Loved the strong female character that resolved to get answers and not stop until she did. Really good book!
