Dovalpage has crafted a slow mystery that builds to a reveal in the form of a letter to the protagonist, Mercedes. Although she doesn‘t trust herself, we know what‘s happening through heavy foreshadowing. I was also bothered by the notion that her life choices lessened her victimization. I get that Mercedes may believe that, but the author seems to believe it too, which is frankly disturbing. I should have bailed. Kept looking for redemption.
