This is such a cool concept, and I really liked the way it started. Unfortunately as the story went on it felt disjointed, like it skipped over a number of important facts - like, for example, the third death - and pieces seemed to be missing to the extent that the narrative felt full of holes. Add to that a rather dry writing style and characters that were introduced and seemed to have great potential to be interesting components of the story but whose personalities were never fleshed out in any way that allowed you to connect to them or understand why they were behaving as they were, and the result is a bit of a jumble... There is interesting stuff here, but you have to work pretty hard and accept a lot of things on faith to tie all the pieces together. This one was a bit of a miss for me...

I honestly didn’t give this book much of a chance before DNFing it so I gave it 3 stars. I just didn’t find the story compelling and it made for very slow reading for me.

Thanks to Netgalley for the advance copy of this book.

I really liked the premise of the book. The ten worst people in New York dying/being killed off, one by one. I liked the main character, FBI Agent Alex Bedford. I found it somewhat distracting keeping tract of all the character names from the List.

3 out of 5 ⭐️

I loved the idea of the book and the general writing of the author. The plot twists were crazy but I have to be honest that between the twists I got bored sometimes. And there were so many different names that it was hard to follow for the first few chapters.

I really enjoyed this as a psychological thriller, it had that overall feel that I was looking for and enjoyed the concept that I was looking for. Matt Plass wrote this well and I was on the edge of my seat. The killer element was really well done and was glad I got to read this.

After a late night tv show lists the 10 worst people in New York, they begin to die suspicious deaths, pulling a retired FBI agent out of retirement to try to connect the dots
