Thoughts

This was an okay thriller, a man finding a bag of money and then having to deal with the consequences of his actions. I had hoped it might be a bit more airport-y, but I feel like this really could have taken place anywhere. And if I’m honest, none of the characters were particularly sympathetic, so even though he’d had a really bad day, I sort of thought he had what was coming to him. Oh well, definitely worth reading but maybe not as good as I’d hoped.

Rating: 3 / 5
