That was a shocking ending. I would read this book again. It was pretty slow at times.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for this ARC in exchange for an honest review.
I recommend this book if you like a slow burn story, with a little mystery thrown in.
I did think this was going to be more of a fast-paced psychological thriller, so I was a bit disappointed. That is probably just my expectations though, if you know what you're getting going in and are excited by that then I'm sure you'll enjoy it.
I do feel like it could have been a much shorter book, but again that may just be my taste, I do like a more action-packed thriller.
PROS: well written. No extraneous sex scenes as we see far too often with male authors. I liked the London setting. The psychology/sleep walking stuff was good, but I thought it would be more in depth and interesting. It was an easy read, despite the length.
CONS: I didn't connect with any of the characters, I just didn't really care what happened to any of them. The 'mystery' didn't land for me, by the time I got to the end I was pretty over it and I wasn't surprised.
I was VERY tired when I was finishing this book, so take my opinions with a grain of salt.

Meh. By the time I finally got to the big reveal at the end I just didn’t care anymore. Book was too long with too many characters.
