I picked this up during my spooking reading and stopped listening for the following reasons:

1. The supernatural piece wasn't what I was expecting and didn't fit into my spooking vibe reading. Basically, the mood of the book didn't match the mood I was in.
2. There is a dual time narrative and I felt like there was too much time spent in the past narrative and the pacing was slow because of that. I typically don't mind a dual time narrative but I think it would have worked better for me if there was a few chapters in present day for every chapter in the past.
3. My notes for why I added to my list were - blood-chilling, supernatural horror, on the reservation. In the first 2 hours of the audio book all I got was the reservation. This was reading much more like crime fiction than horror.
