Everything and the kitchen sink spun through a blender of western, police procedural, and vampire tropes. Full of interesting ideas if only the author could settle on one or two themes, instead of everything he’s ever considered. Does include bright bits of writing and well wrought descriptions.
Graphic: Blood, Gore, and Injury/Injury detail
Moderate: Animal death and Body horror
Minor: Death of parent
