Got hooked by the synopsis. Would read this thriller again! Didn't expect that twist near the end but nonetheless, a must read :)

Brilliant, possibly the most enjoyable book I have read in a long time. I couldn't put it down and read it in 2 sittings it was so good

This will be my second time reading this after never getting my book back. I was truly captivated by this story and couldn't stop reading
