dark mysterious tense fast-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? Plot
• Diverse cast of characters? No
• Flaws of characters a main focus? No

5.0

Tense and surprisingly creepy. A haunted house but who is haunting it if it's new build?? Such a great concept. Novel feels dated in some places where slurs are used casually (f*g and r*tarded) but otherwise feels quite fresh.
