The way the characters’ stories weaved together seamlessly keeps the reader wanting more.
Some books I find the need to keep a pen nearby because so many phrases strike me as beautiful—this was one of those books. I’d describe much of the prose as poetic. And this flow made me fly through the pages.
The mystery, intrigue, suspicions, and relationships really make this story come to life. You get to know each character deeply through their backstories and similar traumas. Jones brings the past and present together with ease showing the reader how we’re all connected at the end of the day.
I highly recommend this book. But definitely check the content warnings since many heavy topics are explored.
