This was a slow burn. The story really picked up at page 210. After that, I had to read it straight through to the end. I enjoyed the alternating POVs between Claire and Lydia as well as the letters from their dad to Julia. The story was extremely graphic at times. The end of the book was really well done.
Graphic: Torture, Gore, Sexual assault, Sexual violence, Violence, Murder, and Physical abuse
Moderate: Drug use, Child death, Death of parent, and Suicide
