5 ⭐'s all the way.
I am writing just after I finished reading this book and I am floored. This book had pulled me in and flowed so well with Dot Hutchison's writing. There being no chapters only made it harder for me to put down since there was no distinct stops besides the three part sections.
I must say that this book was a good intro for me in the realm of darker mystery/thriller/horror types. Because it was told so calmly, when bad, troubling, or horrific things happened it made such an impact on me.
I honestly can't say much without being spoilery. But, I have gasped, guffawed, grasped for any straws of hope, and held back tears as best I could in part three. This is definitely one of the best books I have read this year.

This started off strong - I initially liked the back and forth interview sort of setup between the detectives and Inara, it was like an episode of Law & Order SVU (which I love!).
This started to get a bit samey around the mid-point though and although it was quick enough to get through I just felt a little bored and flat after that.
