This book is a BANGER! Excellently plotted, full of intrigue, and a tense pacing and writing style that keeps me turning the pages. It felt like it was going to be too long at first, but then I didn’t want it to end. It was compelling in the beginning, but the halfway point really set it on fire for me and I was furiously devouring it. I loved the mix of documentary style and first person account
