I enjoyed this book! I found it a little hard to get into for the first half, which is why I rated it where it was. I didn’t feel drawn into the characters until later in the book, and I felt like it was a little anti-climatic, because the suspense was so high. However, it was engaging, gripping, and an interesting story. Not predictable, which I appreciate in a mystery book. I would recommend it, especially to someone who enjoys thrillers but doesn’t like all the gore and darkness that comes with them.
