This book highlights sexual assault, misogyny, infertility and murder all in one. At times I found it hard to read due to the multiple different POVs and perspectives. The characters all had depth but felt jumping back and forth throughout the book made it less engaging, I would have preferred the background first and then the current affairs. The book does hook you in and and keeps you guessing who the suspect really was, however close to the end you figure it out quite quickly. The characters were diverse with lesbian couples, a trans woman and religion. Overall a good book.
