Thank you netgalley and publisher for this arc and ability to provide honest feedback. This is the second book I’ve ready by this author and both are so well done. This one pulls you in immediately and makes it hard to put down to go about daily life. I liked the characters, no repetition, and the storyline was well done. The ending was well done, only felt slightly rushed in that I feel it didn’t explain motive and I wish it did. I need to know whyyyyy the person did/does what they do! But that’s my problem. Nonetheless this author is becoming a definite favorite and I’d recommend this book to everyone!
