Okay Thriller but nothing mind blowing

I won this in the giveaway. To be honest I don't read that many crime or thriller novels as they kind of all blur into one. This was very well written and the pacing was excellent. I just didn't find the story very credible, I know it is fiction, but still needs to be believable. I think the big plot twist at the end would have been more shocking if all the media hype had not left it's own breadcrumbs. Maybe don't read any of the hype before reading.

Average Netflix Thriller

A bog standard thriller that seems to be a main staple with netflix nowadays.Mackie and Grillo deserve so much better given they have been in the MCU.The plot isnt up to much,convict (grillo) has evidence of dirty cops and has to find a way of exposing them with the help of his nurse (mackie) who has had his pregnant wife kidnapped by said convicts brother.

1 or 2 ok action scenes and a few car chases make this a passable but instantly forgettable film.
