Like anything by Ian McEwan, it's beautifuly written.

Joe deleted 30 voicemails left by this stranger, then pouted when no one took his accusation of harrassment as gospel. As a man with a science background, why would he delete the voicemails? No one will simply have faith you're being harassed. Evidence is required with these acusations. Dr. Surprised Pikachu was annoyed for way too many pages.

In so far as his relationship with his girlfriend-- it teetered on "idiot plot." He went out of his way to be secretive, hateful, and weird about his concerns with Perry. The police may not have been in his corner, but she could have been if he had clued her in more and had some patience.

Overall, it was well written and suspenseful, but geeze, it left me wanting in way of plot. In way of... common sense? In the end, I didn't care for any of the characters. I just wanted resolve. I guess I got that much, but it was unsatisfying.

The descriptions are so oddly specific that it makes you slip into the world seamlessly whilst leaving you totally unsettled. Greatly enjoyed it, but I do worry that the plot could be misinterpreted to fit a homophobic narrative - not really the author’s fault, but a concern nonetheless.
