It was good in the sense that I did not see the ending coming by any means. I listened to this on audiobook and think that helped me get through the slower beginning!

The writing was excellent which meant the dual timelines worked exceptionally well. I was consistently intrigued with all the tidbits and red herrings. The characters felt fleshed out and interesting, although I despised a majority of the cast! The selfishness and misogyny of the financial sector really had my blood boiling often.

I had a single qualm: the ending was very abrupt, and I prefer them to have more details about the wider plot and how the dust settled for everyone. Otherwise, a great read.

Side note for other readers: this is not a Saw-style story.
