Well this book was a wild ride. I have never cussed so much while reading a book. The amount of times I said WTF was astounding. I do recommend this book as a thriller. None of the main characters were all that likeable, except Enzo, but it made a pretty good story and I couldn’t put it down. The twist was a slow burn, which was cool. I read 110 pages in one day and almost 100 on another day, that is rare for me as a slow reader. Pick this one up.
