This book is veryyyyyyyyy dark. Be forewarned. It is not a thriller, it is *horror*. Sometimes the horror and trauma was gratuitous, not because it was overtly described, but just because the whole situation was just layer upon layer of fucked up shit.

The way the novel was written kept me invested. Back and forth between first person account and third person as told via interviews with FBI detectives who added the needed levity and warmth to balance things a bit. 

This was an interesting one! 🙃

Too graphic, disturbing, and dark and not in a good way… more like a depressing boring way.
