I am an absolute sucker for a small town that has secrets on secrets on secrets, and this one did not disappoint! I love Kate's storytelling and the way that she perfectly weaves the past and present. I can't wait to read more from this author - I see she has YA and MG titles and I want to check them all out!

And I just need to let it be known that I absolutely adored this narrator and will definitely pick up other books that she does!

Big thank you to the publisher and Netgalley for the audio arc!

I FREAKING KNEW THIS WAS GONNA BE CASS. The story gave me such strong vibes of the Slenderman stabbing from back in 2014 and I totally freaking called it!
