I received an e-ARC of this book from NetGalley in return for an honest review.
I found the premise of this one interesting, but also quite a slow burn. To me the eventual climactic reveal felt overly complicated, as if the original suspect wasn't enough to make the story work, but your mileage may vary on that one. Once I got through the first third or so I found the action much more worthwhile, and the eventual conclusion and epilogue more than satisfactory. I had some suspicions throughout the book but they were all set aside due to further plot developments, which perhaps isn't the best kind of mystery/thriller for me, personally. I don't mind a good red herring, but there were so many in this book it began to feel a little bit like a smokery. Fine if you like that sort of thing, but not entirely my cup of tea.
