Thank you to the author for providing a review copy.
My first 5 star read of 2024! I read and enjoyed Reconstructing a Relationship quite a lot, but here Micah Castle takes things to a whole new level. The atmosphere is tense and sinister, while the prose is cinematic and lush. Bleak, but strangely beautiful. Claustrophobic, but expansive. Strong 5 stars.
