DEVOURED this book. Such an intriguing read. You are in the brain of multiple characters, all with unique voices. Ending was so interesting - can't wait for more.

I've read all of Eskens book and this is the only one I think comes close to how good The Life We Bury was. Lila finds herself just like Joe did at the end of The Life We Bury. I called a few things, but not the most significant ones. Well done all around. Also, the audio book makes it more alive.
