3,5 rounded to 4
I don't know if something like grim-dark historical fiction exists but that's the definition for this book. I like dark and gritty story but this one was sometimes a bit too much and it's not a favorite even if I love this author's books.
It's gripping and you cannot stop reading, it's a good historical thriller but it's a bit too violent and graphical in some parts.
Not for everyone and not always my cup of tea, even if I had fun
Many thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for this ARC, all opinions are mine
