dark medium-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? No
• Loveable characters? No
• Diverse cast of characters? No
• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

3.5

Triana knows how to write disturbing characters well.

Felt like Gary was just shoehorned in for plot though, he didn't contribute anything to the end game.

A lot of typos in this one. It was just as graphic if not more graphic than the last book. Took me longer to read than the first. I still enjoyed it though.

3.5 for me. I loved the first book so much and at first I was afraid this would be a step down from it, but in the last third of the book I really got the same tense dread and anticipation I got in the first. Killing, the river and the River Man is just a real good horror.
