Rape not directly mentioned but alluded to in the past of a distant character. Also threatened to a side character as a part of a memory sequence.ell10tt's review against another edition

The 4th Alex Verus novel. I wasn‘t entirely sure if I still wanted to read this, but it was really good and I am glad I did. Although I only read #3 in May, I was struggling to remember who everybody was during the first few pages.
The tone of this novel is darker still than the previous ones. Alex has to finally deal with his past and the horrible things he was forced to do back then. He has to face someone wanting revenge for his past actions. The good times of the previous book are gone and he might even loose some of his friends, when they finally realize what he is willing to do to survive.
There is a big cliffhanger at the end, obviously. Let‘s see when I will get to the next book in the series…
