Although this book was a bit of a slog at times, it kind of needed to be to show the passage of time and the challenges of moving ahead. It was all worth it to get to the last part of the book where the pieces came together. Beautiful, flawed, complicated characters and an intricate story. Loved it!
Thrillers are not always my cup of tea but somehow this one had lots of details and intrigue but not just the gore of a serial killer.

I had been put off this book by its sheer 550 pages but it was a pretty good read. It felt hard to get through with the language used but at the same time I couldn’t put it down. Crime drama but more focused on relationships. 7/10
Great book. Loved the ending. It was very satisfying. The middle dragged a bit but I did love being able to get to know the characters and see their lives throughout the years.
