Not Hendrix’s best! It was interesting and original, but also pretty messy. (Like a puddle of blood, splattered all over the floor.) The writing shifted direction a lot more than his usual stuff, and not to sound like an old fart but I didn’t like all the plot twists! I did like how he kinda goes down a rabbit hole with “slasher theory” via Chrissy and some of the newspaper clippings. That stuff was fascinating. Anyway, I commend him for trying something new, and I hope he comes back swinging with something really great with his next book.
