With her acute understanding of the human psyche, Gordon portrays her characters with realistic compassion and movingly illustrates Omelia and Sam’s struggles with their inner demons. Vivid worldbuilding, expert prose, and frightening horror sequences propel the winding plot to a satisfying finale. Filled with suspense, horror, and intrigue, this gripping tale delves into the questions of identity, trauma, secrets, pain, fate, and what it means to love truly and deeply. Heartbreakingly real and well-drawn, the novel makes a rich treat for horror lovers.
