The book started really promising, the premise sounded like it would be this action-packed thriller, but after the first part, it got really boring and felt so repetitive. I also felt like there were way too many details and if the details were lessened it would've been a much more interesting read.

It did get a bit more interesting towards the end when we started finding out more, but that wasn't for long.
I am really disappointed that I didn't enjoy this more because I was highly anticipating this.
Also, the negotiator's pov felt very unnecessary because we kept getting these snippets of his life and I was just skimming through his povs because I didn't care for what was going on with him I just needed to get to the end of the book!

I think this should be classified as a slow-burn mystery or romance.

I am in the minority of people who have read this book and not enjoyed it, so take my review with a grain of salt.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for the ARC copy in exchange for my honest review!
