this book was deranged. i thought it would be heavier on the murder mystery of it, and less on the thriller. it was instead extremely graphic on the torture of women, which made me feel uneasy throughout most of the book. it took an extremely dark turn i wasn’t comfortable with, and i wouldn’t have picked it up if i knew where it was going honestly. violence heavy
