Good, buuuut ...
... there are just too many plot holes for me to really give it a four star.
The worldbuilding is interesting, the main cast reasonable well written, if a bit cookie-cut and vague at times.
The plot ... is twisty and interesting ... but in points it relies too much on people overlooking things and it feels forced at several scenes, like people acting out a script rather than the scene actually being lived through. While reading I got the feeling you get when playing a computer rpg and are presented with three options but you want to do something else and just go by the presented options to continue.
So in the end, promise and potential but in execution it misses the bullseye.
