ARC Review
I liked the book as it has some Indian content in it. After a very long time I have read this intensely but I didn't like it a lot. It was terrifying to read but it still held me up at night. Why do you all nowadays leave us on cliffhanger. I mean I was so willingly waiting for the happy ending, maybe it would have changed my mind It took henri only 10 thousand dollars & ily to go as undercover so that he can unleash the sex traffickers but he also has to stay undercover with his demons. Ik Henri was going through so much but the connection was missing. At the start I was rooting for him but by the midway it turned opposite.As far as for ily it was okay but not good. She was willingly doing everything which was demanded. She could have run but she didn't. I mean that's worth the story but it didn't satisfy me.
