I think the audiobook was not working for me. I’ll likely pick this one up again later in print

The book was really good but some of the Trinidad vernacular was challenging and had me Google searching for a definition. The story of Boysie Singh an outlaw and the 4 woman he had relationships with and whom I thought he did not love but used, was a very interesting one. I read another book by this author that was really good. I am looking forward to her future works.
