Thank you to DarkLit Press for providing a review copy.
Steeped in bleak atmosphere, this meditation on death and grief is one intense ride. The book keeps you guessing whether or not Karina is just a victim of intrusive thoughts and maladaptive daydreams or something much more sinister. It's beautifully written and the pacing ratchets up the tension. 4.75 stars
