It was ok. Maybe my opinion would be different if I didn’t listen to the audiobook. I felt like everything happened quickly, the characters were on and off and on and off again. Like the small town setting but it definitely could’ve been more descriptive. I never really felt “there”. Steam was ok as well. Spicy scenes were quick.

I mean, it was fine. Just too long. Narrator was great. Too many characters who didn’t matter. Skipped sections at the end just to know who the killer was.
