This was extremely uncomfortable and confronting to read, yet I could hardly put it down. The structure and use of language is exquisite. The manipulation, predatory nature and psychological abuse conducted by Strane is disgusting. The confusion, repulsion and sadness faced by Wye is heartbreaking.

This is not an easy read nor should it be, but if it offers everyday citizens a slight insight and a better understanding of both predatory and victim mentality then it's a book worth reading.
