I didn't find Julian charming enough to understand why Advika married him. The first half of the book was very frustrating due to Advika’s choices. Advika seemed to waffle between ace detective and burying her head in the sand, which was confusing. In the end
I felt like there were a lot of loose ends that were ignored and it didn’t really delve into just how awful Julian. Did he kill Nova? What happened to Jamison Reeds? What was up with Hartley Harts? He got to die with his legacy intact, which didn’t feel fair.
I guess I’m still thinking about the book days after finishing it, so I guess there was something intriguing about it.
