I really liked this! After getting into it I sped through most of the book in one day. I was super engaged with the characters, their relationships, all the mystery/problems of the plot, everything. I would definitely read more by this author. And I loved all the queer representation! (I'm genderfluid and experience that way differently than Claire/Claude does in this book, but I still really loved having a genderfluid main character.)
Graphic: Trafficking, Murder, Xenophobia, Slavery, Violence, and Gun violence
Moderate: Genocide, Fire/Fire injury, Death, Blood, and Sexual content
Minor: Panic attacks/disorders, Child abuse, Stalking, Cursing, Alcohol, Grief, and Classism
general bigotry, also lots of police/police corruption (though no police brutality so I didn't flag that)
