This wasn't for me. It's for you if you want to read a walking simulator. A woman runs from the police for 95% of the book and I feel bad saying it, but it was real boring. It felt like Ware needed to write something Hollywood-viable so we got lady Jason Bourne without Matt Damon charm. I don't know! If you like heisty action movies, you'll like this! But I don't and didn't. I only go below three stars if I feel actively mad at a book and there's nothing to be mad at here, so three it is.
