a string of murders in the US in the late fifties, characterised by the chilling lack of blood at the crime scenes. a murder in a small town, the sheriff's son, and a girl.
supernatural / murder mystery / historical fiction
one of those that you read in one night [although that might have something to do with my scaredy-cat-ness lmao]. i did to try to reach a satisfactory not scary conclusion which was not reached. [on both counts to be honest]
so a) not my favourite genre because of the supernatural-ness
but b) well written on the most part, loved the world building
c) found the centering of romance annoying to be honest and unnecessary- i am a straight romance hater
d) ending fell a bit flat. a non-ending.
e) enjoyed the characters though
