I liked it a lot. Lots of content warnings for this book. There are many graphic depictions of rape and torture. I like to think I have a pretty strong constitution when it comes to that kind of subject matter, but the book felt like it was even too much for me at times. 

The story itself was enjoyable and the author did a good job of slowly fleshing out the mystery of the main antagonist. The two sisters dona good job of complimenting each other. But it should be emphasized that this book isn't for everyone.
