I were a bit dissapointed at the character at the end but that doesn't mean that is bad in a contrary actually. I enjoyed reading this book but some moments were hard to digest especially Peter's povs. I read it so fast, I couldn't put it down bc I were so interested to know how it'd be solved, it was a fast read bc of that.

Virkelig god psykologisk thriller, som aldrig stopper med at overraske. Mogen vil mene at slutningen var unødvendig og dårlig - men jeg er en psycho som åbenbart elsker at være ulykkelig so there’s that.

Thrilling from start to finish, listened the whole thing in one sitting sacrificing sleep because it was that engaging. The characters are vivid and I grow to really care about what happens to them through the story. A delight and incredible storytelling. Would recommend to enjoyers of book told through unique and challenging perspectives such as Drive Your Plow Over the Bones of the Dead, Room, or American Psycho
