It made me uncomfortable, which I am sure is the point, but I think there was a way to balance this better so that the reader would not feel gross for even reading it. It wasn't fun to read, which is what I look for in a thriller.
The rest of the book was either slow (some parts were boring, just dragged), predictable, or unplausable.
I won't say the writing is awful, so that saves this from being a 1 star. The frequency and description of the violence is gratuitous. The plot and ending is a bit far-fetched as well, but that has nothing on the yuck that is this book. I wish it'd never been recommended to me.

Only delivered on the promise of a dark crime book so I gave a 2.5 minimum.
