Second book of his that I’m reading, and I always find Sager’s writing to be engaging. At first when reading, I started to get disappointed as I assumed that there wouldn’t be a big twist, but how dare I doubt the author because he delivered. I was a little bit bitter that I didn’t guess the twist, and am a bit upset that the twist was paranormal possession, because how am I actually supposed to guess that lol. .
