Non linear timeline
One POV (mostly)
Dark AF
Slow Paced
JFC this was exactly what I thought it would be and I still wasn’t prepared.
A great portrayal of grooming and how someone can get so easily trapped in the unthinkable.
I liked how it wove together past and present for Lane but also the story of each Roanoke Girl. The family tree at the beginning of the book was very helpful in remembering who belonged to who once things started to unfold.
Overall: grab if you want a slow burn make your stomach churn family drama - I don’t even know if family drama is the right term here though 🫠
