Trigger warnings: Brief mention of sexual assault, violence, gore.
I've read a handful of this author's books over the years, and this one is my favorite to date. Their ability to write absolutely terrifying horror without constant, over the top gore is wildly appreciated, and I look forward to reading more of their work in the future. I really loved the setting of this one, and the folklore that builds throughout the story. I didn't see the end coming, and it definitely left me feeling unsettled in the best possible way.
