One thing I will say is that I flew through this book in two sittings. It was definitely an easy read.
I always love a mystery book and this one did leave you guessing, although warning: you don’t get any closure at the end so if that isn’t for you, give this one a miss.
I will admit that I did not see the plot twist coming and it definitely shocked me.
It was a bit cringeworthy in places (the dialogue mostly) and the main character was infuriating which left you praying for his downfall, but in hindsight that was the point.

Graphic: Animal death, Xenophobia, and Stalking
Moderate: Rape and Trafficking
