nirellis's review

Conflicted feeling; the writing was atmospheric and the plot/ pace was well done, my only gripe was not caring much about the characters this was happening to, I predict this was due to there being quite a few characters stories told simultaneously so I could never quite get a grip on just one. But for the pacing and plot this worked very well.

This one really kept me guessing right up until the end. It’s moody and atmospheric.
