What if child kidnapping was a pyramid scheme.
I really enjoyed the first half, it's an interesting, morally dark concept but it should have been left there. The second half turned it into a very plain 'catch the bad guys' action and it fell off and got pretty boring.
Because I only enjoyed the first half I'm giving it the first half of 5 stars.

I’ve seen a lot of reviews hounding this book for how “obvious” and “silly” it seems but with a little bit of suspension of disbelief (I mean cmon it isn’t true crime) I found it extremely fun and captivating.
I did think the author got a little too in the weeds with some of the academic name dropping, philosophy, and tech jargon but as a Techie with a degree in philosophy it felt right up my alley.
