I quite liked this book, which focused on a family's trauma and how it unfolds in a mysterious incident amongst children. I feel like the character of Tom had a weird amount of development, you knew quite a bit about him but not enough, personally I would have liked his character to be a it more or less developed. Overall, very well written and a good expose on intergenerational trauma.
