Rachel Howzell Hall delivers again! Whew!. Consistently strong and complex plots and multi-layered characters. These Toxic Things demands your focus from start to finish. The concept of the a loving Memory Box and digital archeology mixed with greedy gentrification and family secrets show why Rachel remains a top mystery writer.
Minor: Death of parent, Suicide, Terminal illness, and Medical trauma
