This was an enjoyable read, with a multigenerational family of guardians of the dead. I love that it was focusing more on older women and their experiences, and passing that knowledge on. I hope it’s not just a standalone. I’d love to see what happens next.

Content Warnings

Graphic: Gore, Blood, Injury/Injury detail

Moderate: Body horror

Minor: Grief

There is a lot of blood and very graphic descriptions of victims as they are discovered, which could definitely turn stomachs. If you’re used to body horror or gore horror, you should be fine, but it definitely has some rough patches.
