This is easily one of the most unique story lines I’ve read in a long time. It also completely drew me in. There were a couple things that seemed a little unrealistic to me, and it was enough to have me surprised about where the story was headed, which is really the only thing keeping this from a 5 star rating. Very intriguing with lots of one-liners that get you thinking. I loved it.
