This book is a gripping, medium-paced thriller. I found the main topic super interesting (mob mentality murders), and the characters were very well fleshed-out. I’m now inspired to do some digging into the true crime that inspired this story. The one thing that was tough for me as a reader was the ending - there were so many plot lines that the ending where they were woven together felt rushed, and it seemed that the main character was satisfied even though he didn’t get a real answer to the “why”/ the psychological questions he was asking.
