The book is set in a post apocalyptic world broken up into city states of haves and have-nots. Cara is a traverser, someone who travels across multiverses to gather data and resources. The big restriction on that travel is you can only travel across worlds if your other self in that world has already died. This being a post apocalyptic setting, she’s found a number of dark ways to die and is able to traverse into most worlds.

This book goes places with this dark take on the multiverse. There are loads of moments where you think this is just gonna go off a completely dark cliff, but honestly it was kept… tastefully dark. Murders with a code of honor type thing.

There is a ton of character development all over the place and I found the ending able to tie together all the strings better than I expected. It was a really solid book. Nicole Lewis did a really good job narrating the audiobook, giving personality and nuance to characters.
