I quite enjoyed this, didn't see the twist coming (but I'm not really a thriller reader and never really try to figure things out ahead of time either, lol). I liked the different characters - Sophie and Mimi were my favourites, I think. 
Some things were a bit far fetched, like
the whole thing with the wine being a cover for the prostitution/human traficking club, and tbh I don't really think the story with the concierge and her daughter added that much  - I think it could have been incorporated more! Plus the backstory of the FMC was good - I get that she was just trying to get away - but not great IMO. Could have also added some more paranoia from her being scared to be found for example.
but it all fit together and I liked the ending. I listen to audiobooks when I have to do household chores to take my mind off the tediousness and ideally to make me *want* to get up and do the chores lol. So I'm always looking for audiobooks that make me want to continue listening. This one did the job pretty nicely.
