Phewwww this was a rough one, and not an easy read (though I couldn't stop). It's a testament to the author that I pushed through one of my least favorite plot devices because I had to know what happened, and cared so much about the outcome. Excellent writing, pacing, characterization, and imagery (as horrifying as it was). 4.25 stars.
