Read by Yu-Li Alice Shen, Eunice Wong, Leiana Bertrand, and Saskia Maarleveld
This is, arguably, the darkest of the Sutanto novels that I've read thus far. It is suspenseful and twisted and I devoured it. Jane, the protagonist, is not the innocent heroine that appear in other Sutanto books. She has a dark side, though she is far from the worst of characters that appear in this book. I love the psychological element of this novel and the way Sutanto keeps you wondering what will happen next while still giving just enough information that you (think you) have an inkling of what's going on. It's very well put together and the ending...well, I suppose it was fitting.

- "This is what most people don't realize; self-hatred is indulgent. I know how contradictory it sounds, but trust me. Hating yourself is not the opposite of narcissism. In fact, it's just another facet of it because, at the end of the day, the attention is still placed on you."
