This was a strange story, I was going to give it a 5 rating but then it slacked off

There is a part 1 and part 2

Part 1 is the 'crime', Jessica is shopping and takes a break at the food court, along comes a man she doesn't know and strikes up a conversation and she ends up going home with him? From this point after they are enclosed in his apartment is where the 'weirdness' starts and if you are feint of heart you probably won't like it

Part 2 is about the investigation into what happened and came as a twist I didn't see coming
But as the investigation unfolds it gets kind of boring going over everything again and again
The detective, Kim, just wasn't a great character as she had too much family issues happening at the same time

To sum it up? The ending was terrible and that is what lowered my rating to a 3
