Thank you to Tor Nightfire, Macmillan Audio, and Netgalley for my copy of this book.

Compulsively readable. Deliciously horrific. These types of books that have a a thriller/mystery component, I never really love the "reveal" at the end. It never seems to match the build up for me, which is why I tend to avoid thrillers.  Can't say I loved this "reveal" either but it was vague enough to make me like it more than usual and it leaned into the horror elements in the build up in a way I really enjoyed. It's also super fast with all the chapters being so brief that I FLEW through it.

I read partially on ebook and listened partially on audio. The audiobook is a super quick 2 hours and 42 minutes so if you listen at a faster speed, as I do, you really can listen to it in a day or two. It's narrated by the translator so she clearly KNOWS the book and narrates masterfully. I was absolutely transported!!

 Definitely recommended for a quick scare!
