The story really drew me in but I really just can't get past the clunky writing. The characters are incredibly stereotypical and the way information is revealed is very "tell don't show" in the sense that they're just asking questions like "oh, this happened, right?" "yes and xyz." They say weird things like "pardner" and have catchphrases that made me feel like I was watching an old timey detective show, not reading a modern novel. I might have been able to overlook this but once EMT was spelled out I just couldn't do it. Don't treat your readers like they're dumb!

Thank you to the publisher and Netgalley for the ARC
