It's interesting to read about a city that is crooked because vigilantes can step in and fix things when the system doesn't work. I was hooked from the beginning because this book takes me to a world where justice isn't black and white but a hazy shade of gray. When people break the law with a lot of force, it shows how desperate they are. For each page, I looked for the line between right and wrong and tried to figure out when it was okay to cross it.
The thing that stood out the most was how deeply personal the fight felt. There are more themes than just masked people fighting crime in the streets. It's about loss, the weight of the past, and people trying to make sense of the chaos going on around them. Truth-seekers are angry and driven, and I could feel that in me. I could relate to the moral fight of someone who wants to do good but isn't sure if the way they do it makes them just as bad as the criminals they are trying to catch. That battle feels real, and that's what makes the story so interesting.
The pacing was just right—enough action to keep me on edge but never so much that it drowns out the emotional core of the book. And the writing? Getting deeper into the city, its grime, tension, and the unspoken rules that shape the lives of everyone stuck in the middle, felt natural. I could picture the dark streets, flickering streetlights, and news stories that make people argue about whether vigilantes are heroes or just another sign of a broken system.
After reading it, I didn't just feel entertained; it made me think about what fairness really means. That's what makes a book great: it makes you feel something, not just the story. And this one does that very well.
