Read a TW list before reading this book! Don't do what I did, and go in blind. Seriously. I'm a little more dead inside after reading this book.

This book was SO GRAPHIC!! I read reviews and heard all about it on BookTok but nothing prepared me for the level of detailed torture and gross acts. PLEASE read triggers before reading this book. It had good twists and the ending was great. Just way more intense than I anticipated, and I watch a lot of true crime….
