Picked up this book because it was on Kindle Unlimited and I enjoyed the authors Tiktok account. But oh man was this a hot mess of a book. Only reason I didn’t DNF was I wanted to know who the killer was and WOW was that ending unsatisfying and way out of left field. Not a single character had any redeeming qualities or a single shred of my sympathy or respect left by the end. Not to mention just how entirely unrealistic or feasible this entire investigation and scenario was from a legal standpoint. We also had some very poor references/depictions of assault and police brutality. I reserve one star reviews for books I DNF but honestly I am tempted to break my rule for this one.
