Who This Is For

Best for readers who want to be kept on edge: propulsive, twisty, and hard to put down. This is a book that asks something of you. Dense, layered, and best read slowly. It takes its time, and that's the point. Patience is rewarded. Readers who prefer character depth over plot drive may find it thin.

Best Read When

Best read when you're in the mood for something tense and impossible to put down, and a read that's slow and deeply immersive.
