A rather disappointing follow up. The book spent a lot of time building tension, but in the end I was left wondering that it had all been for. It felt like a sequel that didn’t really have a reason to exist and took far too long to come the the conclusion that was clear from only a few pages in. Overall didn’t feel it was worth the investment in time.
Graphic: Rape and Domestic abuse
