This was a super engaging page-turner - I really wanted to know WHAT WAS HAPPENING, and it really waits a while to reveal itself, teasing out the ending. I did struggle a bit more with the denouement, which felt rushed...I wanted more explanation, more information on the twistier parts of the book. Made for a great book club discussion, however!
