Predictable, anticlimactic ending. Yawn.

Kept me guessing at every turn, I kept thinking about this book when I couldn’t read it, so well written and good tension building. I was genuinely shocked at some scenes and felt strong emotions throughout the book

The tangled west’s we weave can lead to redemption? This book was so good! It reminded me of B. A. Paris’s amazing Behind Closed Doors but with even more characters and agendas. In the end, all the major characters have some level of a positive redemption. A must read!!!!

This book was not suspenseful, the “twists” were dumb, and I was not invested in any of the characters. But I’m also starting to think that maybe I just don’t like thrillers very much.

The blurb of the book makes it sound exciting. I waited for a shock, a twist, an unexpected piece. 
Sadly was a bit slow, long winded and a weird ending.

Not great, not horrible. It kept my attention but by the end it just seemed like the twists were forced and very unnatural.
