4.0

This is a standalone short story. The main character is never named. She has 2 jobs for a business. One of these is as a fortune teller. The other is as a sex worker. In her fortune teller role (and it is a role), she meets a woman in distress. The story goes from there. This is quite a thrilling, twisty book. I recommend it for anyone who wants to read a short, intense thriller. It was my first book by Gillian Flynn. I will definitely be reading more from her.
