This was a book of contradictions. At it's core, it's a book about trust. Who do you trust with your life? With your secrets? Trust they are teaching you wisely? Trust they'll have your back? But the problem is that Butcher filled it with to many things, there was just so much going on within the realm of trust, that the story was rushed. I hope the next one takes a step back and reduces the influencers and can pace the story better.
