This book was well written. The author is great at building tension and keeping it tight. It's certainly not for the faint, and I recommend checking the trigger warnings before starting. It's not graphic in the gory sense, but there are several very intense situations with abuse.
Graphic: Animal death, Bullying, Confinement, Domestic abuse, Emotional abuse, Physical abuse, Torture, Toxic relationship, and Kidnapping
Moderate: Ableism, Forced institutionalization, Stalking, and Gaslighting
