This book was more or less everything I wanted it to be. I got through it as quickly as I possibly could, only taking breaks when "life" had to happen. There was very little that I didn't enjoy about this story. Fast paced and so very interesting, I loved seeing things from "the bad guy's" perspective.

I'll jump in, this story is essentially told in three different perspectives (which I enjoyed). You get the view of what's going on around the campus and behind the scenes from three of the psychopaths in this progranm. We also have two main story lines, one being that of Chloe and her need for revenge on Will and the other is who is killing the students.

As far is the Chloe and Will story, I wish there had been a little more to it. At times it felt like there wasn't enough to this specific story to be touted as a major part. Yes, that's essentially what gets Chloe to join this program, along with the free tuition from being a psyohopath, but there wasn't enough going on between why she was there and the final act. It felt a bit rushed and I wanted a bit more from it. That being said, that's my only qualm with the book.

The story of what's going on on campus is the real story, and it was so good! These are the parts that made me not want to put this book down. I NEEDED to know! There was so much going on in the present and so much mystery to the back-story and so many twists and miss directions along the way that for the most part, I didn't know who was behind it all. As you get closer to the final quarter of the book, things start to piece together and you kind of get the feeling of who the killer is, but it was still a hell of a ride to get there.

I loved all the detail the author put into this story, all the workings in the characters minds and little idiosyncrasies that each one had that made them all the more mysterious and real feeling. Each character was so interesting and how they interacted with each other was fun.

There were also so many real world happenings in this book, from BLM to women not feeling safe to walk at night for fear of being attacked or raped, also the fact that people with mental health issues are seen as scary, less than human or as monsters just because they think or act differnetly. How a label in any from from "phychopath" to "slut" can hurt someone. After all aren't we all human inside? This book not only makes you think and feel about the story at hand, but also all the underlying details that are so effortlessly placed amidst it.

I had never heard of this author before I saw this book available on Netgally, but Kurian is surely an author I'll be keeping my eye on! Excelent!

Thank you to Harlequin/Park Row and Netgalley for a copy of this title in exchange for an honest review.
