I love going into books without any clues but this one hit hard as it has a lot of life lessons that are very spelled out around rape by "nice guys you know". The pacing was a little awkward but generally a good story.

Page-turning mystery/thriller, simultaneously shedding light on privilege, rape-culture, and the disparities in opportunity between rich and poor.
