Brilliantly written, so dark and twisted but also intelligent & layered. Loved the two main characters and how he had to wrestle the messed up parts out of her - some twists I did not see coming! So much suspense and mysteriousness and tension. Absolutely loved it. Check TW’s as it is quite dark.

One sitting. That's how quick I read this book. I am obsessed! This book is so dark and, even though I'm going to sound a bit psychotic myself here, the characters are surprisingly relatable, which is something that isn't always present withing romance books. I've got a feeling this book is going to leave me with a massive book hangover. But now I need more serial killer recs! Book 2, here I come.
