I found myself screaming “NO!” more than once while reading this book… if my roommate didn’t already think I’m crazy, she definitely does now. And when she faces more loss over the course of the story, you feel it right along with her. You feel more intense her grief is and experience just how laser focused she is on destroying the Swarm. You know exactly how she’s thinking and feeling, which makes you feel like you’re living the story, making it all the more painful to experience. The author excels at putting you right in Lia’s head. In this book, though, the author makes you really feel for Lia. I feel like when I normally read thrillers, I don’t get that attached to the main characters, because thrillers tend to be more plot driven. I was blown away by how much this book made me feel. Lia thinks she has nothing, no one, to lose, but as the story progresses, she will see just how untrue that is. The Swarm knows Lia is after them, which means that she could be their next victim. The Swarm has taken so much away from her, and they’re not done with her yet.Īs Lia gets deeper and deeper into investigating, aided by her hacker best friend, Adam, she has to go to bigger and bigger lengths to avoid detection, but ultimately fails. Her mom pleads with her to let it go, afraid to lose the last family member she has left, but Lia refused to be swayed. However, her debilitating asthma and PTSD makes everything a struggle. Lia is determined to do anything to bring the Swarm to justice and keep them from taking more innocent lives.
