I usually dislike "unreliable narrator" stories, particularly stories by Arkady and Boris Strugatsky. I am almost always clueless, confused, and need to go back and re-read the narration after the big reveals at the end to understand who was lying, gaslighting, etc. This book is very-well crafted, easy to follow, and gripping. The psychology (slowly developing psychopathy) is compelling and the writing is wonderful. My children dis-recommend her other books because they are so depressing. 5/5 Stars, highly enjoyable!
