I loved this! The isolated winter setting was so good. I thought every character in the book was the butcher at one point or another. Just when I thought they were going to figure out the killer, it would take a turn and they’d be back at square one. It had me on the edge of my seat the whole time. I’d say it’s my favorite read so far this year, and I need to read more Darcy Coates ASAP! 

Thank you to Darcy Coates, Poisoned Pen Press, and Net Galley for this ARC.
