I enjoyed this much more than the first story! Tony gets into some shady stuff and it spirals after that.
This was definitely dark but also a crazy concept to think about. A new loophole to murdering someone was discovered which is forcing people to commit suicide, meaning they can’t come back. I wonder what else counts. Also I didn’t mention this in the last review but if the place someone appears after being killed is their happy place (theorized) could someone just think of a place before they die and end up there? if they will it enough this could be really useful.
I hope Tony gets into more shady stuff cause it was highly entertaining.
