Captivating! I essentially read this in two days. Such a good plot that keeps you guessing and itching to figure out the mystery ahead of the characters. I really really enjoyed this and was so intrigued throughout. Definitely recommend!!!

If you have ever seen the TV show Leverage and liked it then this story is for you. I loved the plot! The development of characters was good except Kat, the journalist. Kat was a disappointment for me. The character Meg was a true grifter. The story had a couple of dragging spots that was hard to get through but over all flowed good.

The backstory and build up to the finale was extremely well plotted, and while not what I would consider a suspense/thriller, it still kept me hooked on every page. The psychological revenge aspect was so worth the payoff at the end. It was a super quick read and mirrored some similar themes found in The Mindf*ck series (without the violence) and the TV series Revenge. Loved it and I rooted for Meg all the way through!
