challenging dark fast-paced

I don’t know that I would have read this had I known the extent of the graphic violence against women. Really good thriller. Fantastic, actually. But I can’t give it a fair rating because it was very triggering. Be aware going into this one.

I feel like this is the best thriller I’ve read in a while. Like a thriller that actually had twists and turns. This would make a great movie! A times the main character made me mad, but it was forgivable.
