I loved this book. Thriller, mystery, feminine power all wrapped in to one supernatural story. The characters are strong and venerable all at once and the plot is somewhat predictable but still very good.

had more of a Jeffrey Epstein/Guilayne Maxwell vibe at the end, wasn’t expecting that.

This was an enjoyable feminist revenge fantasy. I didn't think the writing was the best (the dialogue often felt forced). Some of the feminist and class conscious messaging felt a little 101 but hey some people need that. Despite these critiques, I found myself enjoying the story throughout, it was a very easy and pretty quick read relative to its length, I was gripped by how the story would resolve and satisfied by the ending

Graphic: Child death and Pedophilia

Moderate: Rape and Murder

The story centers on teenagers who are raped and murdered- these scenes are not described graphically but it is a pervading theme of the book
