The Quiet Ones by Glenn Diaz

3.0

Where to put my finger on this one? I wanted to love this book so badly. Got me in the first half, where it succeeded in slapping the manila dream right in the face. Went downhill from there as it turned out to be more of a social commentary and less of a crime thriller. It was gunning for something, whatever it was, but it missed the mark for me, at least.
