I love this unconventional friendship between Lily and Henry. Reminds me of a less toxic version of Alice and Luther in the BBC Luther TV series.
What I enjoyed most about this book is that every character seemed to think their morality ruler was the right one to measure their actions against, but in reality, it was how they justified their choices. Personally, I think morality is relative, but I also abide by some basic agreed social principles (like murder is bad). But for these folks, it was all on a sliding scale.
This is my favorite of the series so far.
