This book has a 5-star concept. There are echoes of Blake Crouch, the Severance TV show, and even Lost. The character works for a hyper-secretive company named Langan, and the president at the time is Whitmore -- how can I not think of Severance's Lumen and Lost's Charles Widmore?
Although the promise of the time travel conceit meant that I couldn't put it down, the first two-thirds were slow, and everyone and everything outside of the main character felt underdeveloped. The last third significantly picked up the pace and reached a satisfying conclusion, even though it's not exactly how I would have preferred it to end.
