At first, this mystery/thriller was giving me The 13th Tale vibes, which I am here for. Then it took a bit of a sci-fi turn, which I am also into and was expecting from this book. However, it just seemed to lack any kind of depth and the characters felt very one dimensional. The insta-love plot line threaded throughout was not at all believable, and the writing felt repetitive and facile. There is an intriguing twist at the end, but I don’t know if it is worth the journey to get there.
