About

You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a twisty, suspense-forward thriller with creeping dread and lots to track, similar to Dig Two Graves; Not for you if you hate slow burns or messy plotting.

Pros: tense cat-and-mouse setup; engaging mystery hooks; some strong acting | Cons: slow pacing at times; confusing story beats; uneven writing
