   Grace goes on vacation to Wyoming, and stays at Calvin's house where he's renting out a room as an Airbnb, but neither one of them is what they seem. 
     Wow! The ending did surprise me, and they both ended up being very screwed up. I could have used it without all the animal death, blood, and gore. That got a bit extreme at points. 
     It was a very twisty thriller and not what I expected. But it kept me engaged.

Narrator Rating: 5 stars!
    Both narrators were amazing. Great with the voices and tonal shifts.

2 stars is because I am excited to have listened through this book do quickly as it truly was captivating and I had no idea what would happen. I would say “I never saw that coming” but that is usually associated with an OMG shocker- that usually makes me look positive upon a book. For this book, my reactions were “uh.”, “what is going on?”, “this makes absolutely no sense” and “nope”. Also the misogyny is through the roof but I think I now see why that was done, but it sure did not help.

I am usually good at guessing endings... but this twist got me. I'm impressed. And chilled

The narration feels off from the very beginning and it turns out there's a reason for that, but I feel like this book relies too heavily on a grand "twist" over actual character development.
