3.0

Certainly a page turner, but nothing life changing. The characters were forgettable (literally, I forgot who was who many times), the relationships shallow, and the plot foreseeable and redundant. Picked this up for a book club and won’t revisit it. Still, I’m glad there are good thrillers for younger audiences like this one.
