Reseñas de la Crítica

When I’m in the mood for a fast paced, dark and twisted thriller I know I can always count on a Mark Tilbury book to deliver and this was no exception ... Tilbury never shies away from exploring the dark and depraved depths of humanity.' (Novel Gossip)

Soooooo good!

Omg! This book was so good! I couldn’t stop listening!!! I’m so glad it was recommended to me!!

Had no idea going in

I am a fan of dark stories that tell the truth about how awful humans see to each other and this book delivered. It’s not for people who are easily offended but it’s a well told story, and the performance is masterful.

Weird

All I can say is that this was an weird and strange book. The summary doesn't prepare you for the material. If childhood abuse both sexual and physical disturb you I'd stay away. I wasn't prepared for how difficult it would be. Really it's something the publisher ethically and morally should have at least warned about.

That said, it's not a masterful piece of work to justify the ordeal of processing it. It wraps it up to easily and neatly like it's based in the world where everyone gets what they disserve in the end.
