I thoroughly enjoyed this listen! I was expecting it to basically be cheesy from start to finish - but there were quite a few layers of complexity to the characters that I think elevated the concept quite a bit!

There were quite a few twists and turns that kept me on my toes, though I'd say they were teetering on the edge of being ridiculous - but *just* managed to stay on this side of being eye-roll worthy.

What I would really love to see is this story being picked up as a movie script! I think it has the right amount of drama and intrigue that would make an excellent movie & in the hands of really adept screen players writers this story would be next level!
