I consume horror with a ferocity unmatched, however a book hasn't made me feel this physically ill in a long time. Well done! This book hits all the high notes. Dread, gore, death, panic, and survival. This story has it all. Throughout the book I was seeing all the red flags and found myself trying to warn the protagonist out loud, begging her to run. This is how you do good horror.
