The Buck Stops Here by Sean Seebach
4.0
A thrilling creature feature! I actually read this book without reading the synopsis so to say it begins with a shocking scene is an understatement. I knew then that I was in for a ride, and I wasn't disappointed. The threat of an unknown creature terrorising a small town is scarier than I expected. The deaths are brutal! The book portrays the characters sympathetically and it feels as if we already know them which makes their loss hits harder.
I thought Abigail is an interesting protagonist but I didn't really care for the policing angle, so I liked that we get other characters' points of view as well. The book shows a small-town mob mentality but I wish it's expanded more because the decision-making by some of the characters is confusing. But it didn't stop me from enjoying the story, especially the action-packed climax. I'll be thinking of deers differently from now on!
Thank you to the author for a review copy.
