This had all the intentions of being a good thriller, and it did start off that way…
However, once the big plot twist dropped 200 pages in, I wasn’t that shocked by it, and the plot just followed on from that but with what the other characters were doing in relation to the plot twist.
It was okay, but I’ve read more intense thrillers which have kept me engaged more.
