4.5 stars and PHEW what a ride. This was exactly the kind of thriller I've been craving — well-written, good character development, tension, and a satisfying conclusion. I immediately found the next book in the series and will be starting it immediately.

I liked this opener to the series.  The characters felt real and there were many tense moments.  Would have liked more of an explanation into why the culprit did what they did but I guess that will come from reading more of the series.  I will definitely continue :)
