She could have gone a little deeper with a lot of the concepts, but it was a good, fairly spooky read.
Wish we'd gotten a little more of an investigation to flesh out the cult stuff.

Wow. My head is still spinning. I really enjoyed this book. While I had a hard time getting engaged at first, the slow burn paid off as the story progressed. I didn’t love Lucas’ character and found him irritating, but a good book is supposed to evoke strong emotion, right? The book leaves some unanswered questions, but I like a book that makes you think about it long after you read the last page. This is my first Ania Ahlborn book and I can’t wait to read more.
