Well written, emotion evoking book with a strong FMC. The themes touched upon; oppression of women, female empowerment, the paranormal and solving murders was a perfect combo for me. I deducted half a point because there was one part that was confusing followed by excruciatingly painful that will likely leave emotional scars. While that might be other people's "thang" ("A little life"-readers where you at? 😜) it isn't mine. 

Tldr; would recommend

I loved this book. I loved the strong female characters and Dr. Hansen. Honestly couldn’t put it down. Such an imaginative, unique story.
