I loved the first half of this book. It was tense, and the setting of the Appalachian mountains was brilliant. It was heavy and gruesome but the mystery was great. I truly could not pin point the who or even the who for the first half. But things started getting weird in the last quarter and I wasn’t a huge fan of the ending. It seemed kind of like a different book by the end. That could absolutely be because I’m not a huge fan of sci-fi but it just didn’t seem like the ending gave the rest of the book Justice. I would love to read more by Erin E. Adams though.
