Not, my favorite Alice Feeny book and the book was pretty slow-paced, but it was still an entertaining read. I read it in a day. The twist at the end was good though.

That rape scene was unnecessary.

She's definitely improved though. I think I'm more keen on her newer books.

Um…. Huh???? Did I devour this book in 1 day? Yes. Did it keep me engaged and wondering? Yes!! Was it unhinged? 1,000x yes!!! I don’t even know where to start. Like, I think it’s one thing to throw some doubt into the plot but the ending was so confusing I immediately googled it and nobody else understood it either. 
It was not satisfying. I think there were too many elements that are left open, some of which just seem unnecessary.
