Synopsis
Peyton is barely getting by. He’s divorced, a dad, broke, and drunk most of the time. After hitting rock bottom, he is offered a life changing amount of money to take out an evil man. But, as he embarks on his mission, he can’t help but wonder more about the person who ordered the hit. He begins to obsess about it to get to the bottom of things.
Thoughts:
This was a fun read. I loved how gritty and raw it was. The main character, Peyton, was entirely unlikeable, but I really enjoyed him, nonetheless. He was a fun character, and he wanted better things for his daughter which I can appreciate. I loved that this book was written in the first person. It made me feel much closer to Peyton and his struggles. I think that Peyton was in a loose situation and really struggled with what to do. As the book went on, there were so many twists and that was fantastic. The ending was fantastic, and I loved how it worked out. The themes of the book were dark, and this book is heavier in terms of what I read. The pacing was fast, and I blew through this book in one sitting. I finished it over the course of a few hours one afternoon. I also appreciated the short chapters which helped hold my interest and keep me engaged.
If you are looking for a fast-paced thriller that will make you question your morality, then you need to check this one out.
