I enjoyed this book more than I thought! I loved that these characters were morally gray, but like a light gray. It was more suspense than thriller in its themes, with some spy-esque plot elements. I had a lot of fun reading and gobbled this book up really fast. I would have liked to read a few chapters from Ryan’s perspective to thicken the plot in the second half of the book. I think most people would generally enjoy this, but someone who loves thriller might not like this as much as I did.
