AIYO i could not put this book down! 
it was intense and rather stressful at times, and i loved the feeling of 'time running out' in the story. 

personally, i liked red (the mc) because she was quite a fleshed out and layered character. the others... were not so much. there was one character in particular who absolutely made me go bonkers because they were so annoying
FRICKING OLIVER, anyway he got what he deserved in the end

anyway, the twists were good, and i thoroughly enjoyed myself.

if you're looking for a fast paced mystery thriller that takes place in one night in a rather confined area, i would recommend this book!
