3.5
What an adventurous thriller. This novel is a fast paced. It will keep you on your toes. A lot of characters. As a reader, you have no idea who to trust. Steadman let’s you think you’ve got it all figured out, but at last you don’t. There were a few holes left in the story in my opinion, but the ending came around full circle, so I can live without the answers to my questions. I will read another book by this author.
There is a scene in the book where the main character gives an absolutely fantastic “drop the mic response ” to another character. Slayed. Had to add that. Mild sexual content. Medium profanity.
