I was excited about this one but it wasn't for me.
This started quite strong, with a tense opening sequence of 2 children accidentally getting on a Tube train alone and only 1 getting off at the next stop.
After the first 20% however the pace slowed right down and became a bit of a slog, with short present chapters but longer past chapters which just became a bit samey and boring.
I skimmed through the the 40-60% mark and found barely anything had changed, then it eventually picked up again at the 80% mark.
For a short book, it felt dragged out and the big reveal wasn't all that worth it in the end.
