I can see why this was so hyped. Alyssa Cole is known for her amazing swoony romantic books.... So how exciting is it to see her pivot to thriller.
While the premise was promising enough, the execution didn't work for me. Slow build and the rush at the end to fit everything was a unsatisfactory.
I loved the history it serves concerning Brooklyn, found it educational.
"People bury the parts of history they don't like, pave it over like African cemeteries beneath Manhattan skyscrapers."
The supposed romance was meh.... I didn't care for it at all. And he's just supposed to be some white good guy after all he did secretly.
Overall disjointing
