Very much the book I needed to get out of a reading slump. It is a fast-paced book that can be read, and should be read, in only a couple of sittings. It gave me Hannibal (the tv show) vibes, which I loved. I enjoyed the characters and the plot. The treatment of the gore was perfect for me, as we mostly see it through the eyes of a squeamish person, we get detail, but not gross detail. It was totally out of my comfort zone, but the author did such a great job that I am really glad I picked up a physical copy. I will almost definitely re-read this one, which is a rarity.
