Satterlie crafts a tense atmosphere by contrasting the quiet life of an animal shelter with brutal criminal acts. The narrative effectively utilizes the perspective of reporter Jason Powers to peel back layers of family deceit, particularly regarding Agnes Hahn’s twin and her aunt Ella’s fading memory. The focus on Alzheimer’s adds a poignant, tragic dimension to the legal intrigue. While lacking fast-paced action or supernatural elements, the book excels in building psychological dread through investigation. It suits readers who appreciate methodical plotting and character-driven horror over gore.
