⭐ Reader reviews
Reader rating
Farshtey structures the plot around a race against time as Deacon tracks a bizarre killer, creating tension through immediate danger rather than slow-burn literary exploration. The book excels in delivering clear stakes and action-oriented pacing, making it ideal for fans of contemporary supernatural fiction. It effectively explores themes of survival and the sudden intrusion of the supernatural into everyday life. However, it does not suit readers looking for extensive world-building exposition or academic analysis of folklore. Those preferring historical horror may not connect with this style, but enthusiasts of magical murder investigations will find the narrative compelling and direct.
