“I don’t have a lot of flaws, but a total lack of humility is one of them.”

I loved this. A fantastic thriller with complex characters, wry humor, and a strong plot. I recommend this to any thriller fan, and I can’t wait for Kurian’s next book.

Brittany Pressley gives an excellent performance on the audiobook, too. She differentiates the characters well, and her dialogue delivery rings true and is full of personality, augmenting what’s already strong on the page. A great listen.
