Jk’s problematic-ness aside, I do like the strike/robin series (which I got into before she aired her crazy). This most recent installment was much more interesting than the last 2 and was a page turner. It had a nice dose of mystery and it was also about a cult which I have an abundance of interest in, and some of the ways they function and brainwash people.

I really enjoyed this, I loved the creation of an entire cult and the creativity behind it. Would really recommend

As always, impeccably written and just so dang good. The Strike books are a series I can consistently lose myself in and enjoy every meticulously plotted page of. I’ve always been fascinated by cults so this one may have been my favorite yet - the tension built throughout was phenomenal.
challenging dark slow-paced

Best book yet in this series. As complex as Lethal White while having a more compelling plot and the ending does not disappoint.
