This is the first book I've read from this author. It was easy to stay engaged. I was all in from the start but at about 75% in I was starting to lose my connection. I was waiting for the plot twist that didn't seem to come. I didn't feel the "thrill" I was expecting. There was not really any answer to who the "bad guy" was and was somewhat left open-ended. Not my favourite way to end a thriller although I did still enjoy the book. I was hoping for a 5 star read because of the recommendations I had seen on social media but not this time.
