This book deploys an interesting mix of psychological horror and descriptive violence to achieve its end. The plot is quite interesting and moves along at a good pace.
One scene near the final act was particularly heart rending.
However the scary sections of the story were quite few and far between, and it never felt like a sense of tension or dread was maintained through the bulk of it. I also felt that the resolution was a little predictable from quite early on in the narrative. Still a fun read though.
