Being in Logan's head is terrible!
I'm not mad at the ending even though I would have liked to see the aftermath

Good, relatively quick read. Classic thriller feel, but compared to Sutanto's other works (namely "Vera Wong's Unsolicited Advice for Murderers) the plot felt predictable and the writing felt rushed. Probably used Chekhov's Gun a little too liberally. The prose was simplistic but not elementary, and the book has a strong ending. Worth a read, especially if you've enjoyed other Sutanto books.
