A book you just can't stop reading. The story flows so smoothly, and every chapter ends with a hook that makes you want to jump straight into the next one, i literally read the whole book in a weekend!

The plot keeps you thinking, leading you to come up with your own theories, but every time you think you've figured it all out, a brilliant twist hits you and flips everything upside down, reshuffling the whole game. I haven't had an experience like this since reading Stieg Larsson's Millennium series.
Carrisi also did a great job setting the story in a location that could feel like any city in the Western world. He cleverly played with the characters' names and the descriptions of the places to make it feel universal to the reader.

Reading it in the original language, I noticed that even though the book deals with heavy topics, Carrisi handled the intense scenes with a touch of elegance and sensitivity. I hope the translations manage to capture that and do it justice.
