This mystery was great! I was drawn in immediately and there were many twists and turns. It was on its way to 5 stars but I wasn’t totally happy with the ending. I wanted it to be a bigger reveal. But still it was an excellent read and I definitely recommend it.

A surprising number of thrillers assume their reader isn’t that smart. The clues are obvious, the plot formulaic. This isn’t one of those thrillers. The plot twists hit hard and frequently. The author isn’t just telling a story, she’s commenting on humanity. Though her message is admittedly a dark one. The book was gripping and made me think.
