This was a really compulsive read and I flew through it in a day. But check the trigger warnings as there are very dark themes of abuse, SA, and murder. Even though I figured out most of the twists, the story was still really engaging and kept me turning pages. Overall, this book is a really good thriller with a lot of plot points that come together well for a satisfying conclusion. I’m looking forward to reading more from this author.
Graphic: Child abuse, Death, and Fire/Fire injury
