I enjoyed the book but the first half of the book was very confusing.  The constant time shifts made it hard to get to know the characters.

Meh - kinda felt the plot had so many strains that it affected the pace. I'm always surprised by how long her books are for pacey crime thrillers.

I only started this series because I accidentally bought the newest book and can’t be bothered to return it yet don’t want to read that one first. 🙃 I think I’ll be doing it out of spite because I did not love this book. It wasn’t hot garbage but there was a lot going on, most of which was unnecessary.
