Confronting subject matter. Survivors of cults and child abuse in all its forms take care reading this.

Anyway, the plot is well-woven and immersive. I felt like I was in that cult with Robin the entire time.
Pat is now my favorite side character. Murphy can eat dirt. I’m proud of Strike and how he’s trying to be better in every sense. Robin is the true backbone of the story, always reliable and kind and smart, although, at times, I wish she wouldn’t be so courageous, not to say reckless. Her decisions make me tense.
I gave this book that extra .25 stars because I cannot believe

So many trigger warnings, I'm sure there' some I missed. The inner workings of the cult might be a lot. Proceed with caution if you need.
