An outside of my typical genre read! I always enjoy puzzling through a mystery/thriller and the scope and scale of the various mysteries in this thriller were certainly engaging and impressive. 

There are some elements of the story that were really hard for me to read - check content warnings!

Contains content about terrorism and jihad, with a potentially “black and white” filter - some hints at the school of thought that says Americans are good, the Middle East is bad.
