This was a pretty interesting concept for a book, but it just didn't work for me. I felt the book was very slow paced and it seemed like nothing was really happening for majority of the book. For the most part, the twists were pretty predictable and a lot of the plot was either too far fetched or flat. This book didn't feel like a thriller to me. Really this book was just about an island of misogynistic men. It seemed to end very abruptly, though there was an epilogue.

This was a wild ride. There a lot of books with plot twists that throw me, but this book took a complete left turn and then threw a plot twist on top of that. This is my second book by this author (Eight Perfect Murders was my first) and this was nothing like that book but both managed to leave you guessing and feeling tense until the conflict is resolved.
