I know I'm late to the party on this one but MAN, what an ending! By far the best book I've read all year. The chapters were short which I'm a huge fan of. I flew through this in three days, and I'm a pretty slow reader. If it wasnt for work and the need to sleep, I would've finished this in one sitting. I did NOT want to put it down. The narration was suberb and the dialogue was very easy to follow and kept my interest the whole way through. Absolute 10/10, HIGHLY recommend if you like psychological thrillers!
