I surprised myself by being able to follow the thread of linked characters of these 13 interconnected stories. The stories were all of high-quality, but the tension varied.
Some were tense throughout some were slice of lifestyle stories with shocking endings that seem to come out of nowhere. This is the type of collection that should be reread after one knows the ending. I’m just not sure if I liked it enough to devote time to a second read.
