This book was a pleasant surprise in the overcrowded 'psychological thriller with a twisty ending' genre. What initially seemed to be a solid but familiar outting turned out to be a sensitive depiction of how victims of sexual assault are abused again by the legal system and public perception. There was also a sly dig at those who profit from the interest in true crime.

Fans of "The Escape Room" will enjoy this book also, though "The Night Swim" is a much better book.
