A great heist! Reminds me of Six of Crows, if you halved the cast and doubled the dark and violence. Really caught me off guard a bunch of times.
Graphic: Child death, Cursing, Death, Gore, Torture, Violence, Blood, Excrement, Vomit, and Murder
It's a dark and violent stiry and doesn't recoil from that at all. It doesn't leave you reckoning with it really, just facing it and accepting it as part of the events.
