2.5. - saw the twist coming but there were enough surprises I was still interested. Short audiobook that is great for a short road-trip. Good to listen with others.

This was really interesting but I felt like I was listening to a pitch for a great book that never fully got finished.

This was not great. The characters are flat, the plot is clunky. There’s none of the lyricism I like in McTiernan’s other books. Glad it was at least short.

Anyone else expecting this to turn fully supernatural in the end? No? Me either! So stupid.

This book was just awful. It may have been better as a full length novel, but I’m not sure. There was no character development, and everything felt forced and easily explained away. No one’s motive was clear, and the “big reveal” was a monumental letdown.
