TW- ⚠️rape/ sexual assault ⚠️,
⚠️torture (like in the horror movie Saw) ⚠️human trafficking. ⚠️

I almost DNF’d this book twice because within the first 100 pages there are multiple mentions of a character being raped - which I didn’t enjoy and made me feel uncomfortable 🫣😭. This is also insinuated one more time during the book too as we as frequent mentions of torture. Wow!!! What a thriller - im so glad I stuck with the book and didn’t DNF it as it was amazing and like no other thriller I’ve read before ⭐️. Even though towards the end I guessed what was happening - The way the authors mind works left me shocked. 🤯 not to mention that last chapter😢.

It was only the authors writing style that kept me hooked and wanting to find out what happened to the characters. From the very first page you are sucked into the story. Even though I found the subject the author wrote about harrowing I did find her writing/ storytelling engaging and very clever 👍. If it wasn’t for this I would have stopped reading it’s like that saying ‘it’s like a car crash you really should look away from but you can’t stop looking ’.

I did like how as the story progressed the kidnappers changed their tactics based on what had happened in previous chapters. It gave the story a good sense of realism.

It’s scary to think how the storyline in this book could easily be happening in real life 😱😢
