- Plot- or character-driven? A mix
- Strong character development? It's complicated
- Loveable characters? No
- Diverse cast of characters? No
- Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

I feel mixed about this book. The writing is decent and the initial big twist surprised me. The ending felt kinda slapdash and rushed, with some storylines wrapping up in ways that felt too convenient.
I enjoyed Leo's chapters and wish we got to hear more from him. But also, now that I know the ending, I feel a bit like "what's the point" with his storyline.
Not perfect but worth the read overall. This is my first Mary Kubica book and I'll probably try some of her others.
