A "fine" thriller. Author does a little too much telling rather than showing, especially at the beginning and the dialogue doesn't make the characters feel real. As the book goes on this gets better as the action starts.
The horrors the antagonists are committing are explained in gruesome detail, and sexual assault is mentioned a lot, but not always in a considerate way I felt. Supernatural elements in the second half are intriguing
