slbeckmann 's review for:

4.0

Thank you to the author, New American Press and NetGalley for an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

This is a hard one to review. Beautifully written short stories, a stunning debut - dark, darker, noir and disturbing. The characters in each are people that invite trouble into their lives, and then struggle to deal with the aftermath. Despite the short story format, the author puts wonderfully well-rounded characters on the page, that stay with you long after you've finished reading.
