First off, huge thank you to NetGalley and Macmillan Audio for the ALC!
I've been sitting on this review for a while because I really wanted to love this book. The premise—paranormal investigation intertwined with Native American history—is intriguing. However, the story often felt disjointed, pulling in so many different directions that I found myself zoning out and getting bored. If there had been more focus on Olivia, her sister Naiches' death, and the cult she was part of, I believe I would have enjoyed the story more.
The narrator, Ina Barrón, did a fantastic job. Her portrayal of the characters' emotions kept me engaged throughout the listening experience. The little ads for ghost equipment included as chapter breaks added a quirky touch. There is also a Meow Wolf reference in the first chapter, which had me whooping over the shout out🍃💨
Was I disappointed by this? Yes, to some extent. However, I still appreciated the overall premise and would be interested in reading more from this author in the future.
