However, Karin Slaughter is so good & I love the consistent twists & turns throughout this book rather than holding out for one huge reveal at the end. Really compelling & unputdownable with a pretty satisfying conclusion.
Super gruesome, so please be mindful of trigger warnings.

It's unrelentingly bleak, hard and with never even a glimmer of hope or happiness.
Excruciatingly detailed with fully-fleshed out characters (and then some, honestly) and a blindsiding twisty and clever plot, I should have enjoyed this more. I simply felt myself, my mood dragged down while reading it. It will be worth a second venture when I'm more mentally prepared for the type of material.
