This was...a strange book. It took turns I wasn't really expecting it to. Where [book:The Dead and the Dark|53141419] was a ghost story, this is more of a story of time, of relationships, of people in power controlling others. It's a slow moving story, definitely more focused on the relationships throughout the story instead of the specific plot.

There were times where it was a bit difficult to follow what was going on because there is some time jumping, but it adds to the mystery of the story. It did make it hard for me to get fully invested in the story, though.

The plot itself is tense, with the ending coming in a bit of a rush. I kind of wish the plot was more even, but if you're looking for a relationship driven, tense book, this book is definitely for you!
