This was an enjoyable urban fantasy. Less worldbuilding in terms of magic, but the rivers lore is interesting and I can tell it will be explored further. I really liked the main mystery and its gruesomeness? I guess? Idk, I found it interesting. I didn't feel like I totally had a grasp on the world/magic to understand the mechanics of the main character's solution at the end, but I found the character interactions at the end enjoyable to read.

"There's literature on this?"
"You'd be surprised, constable, what there is literature on."
