I liked this story a lot but the ending fell flat for me. I would have liked to know where Hallow’s life looked like after leaving her adoptive home. 

The family connections in this story and the tradition of the caul business were very detailed. But, the depths in which people would go for power, money, and even acceptance was sometimes hard to see on page. 

Amara subjected her own child to a business she despised, without knowing. And that was the saddest part.
