I cannot believe it's taken me this long to read Silvia Moreno-Garcia! I've been missing out! I absolutely tore through this book. The atmosphere, the mystery, the lush writing style, it all clicked immediately for me and I couldn't put this story down. The characters are interesting and well developed, the story is tense and creepy, and ooooh that tonal shift partway through could have totally put me off in another author's hands but SMG pulled it off beautifully!
