3.0

This book reminded me of Crossroads by Laurel Hightower and Hollow by Mike Salt and grief horror has definitely become one of my favourite tropes.  

You really feel the descent into grief, madness and fury that the main character goes through. While this was a bit too slow burn for me, I still really enjoyed it.
