This book was not at all what I was expecting when I picked it up but I don't regret it at all.

I have never wanted to kill someone’s dad so bad. 
Startling and urgent. The horror of this book is streamlined and atmospheric, a unity of effect that imposes and creeps inside the reader. Quiet and devastating, this richly described story needles and pricks, just a little bit of bloodletting, bit by bit until you cannot help but pale in the face of the ending.
