2nd book in a series, easily read as a stand alone. I liked this one better than the first. Highly recommend the audio book; the narrators captured the tension and drama.
Content warning: A central character survived a sexual assault years before the events in the book. The survivor has no memory of the event and eventuallyfaces her attacker and fights him, stabs him.
