Everyone who wants to write about a sex worker needs to take notes on this book. The way she writes a sex worker as a 3D, flawed, interesting person that isn’t a sad victim is so refreshing and funny and believable. Loved it.

A good, quick thriller. Not especially deep, but some good twists. Maybe a bit predictable if you’re the kind of person who puts together the puzzle as you go along, but I enjoyed it.
