![]() ![]() ![]() The writing was eloquent and beautiful with its prose, I immediately connected with it as it described horrific as well as touching subject matters. ![]() So many emotions were given space, and after the downright unsettling beginning, I’d say the middle portion of book is where things slowed down, primarily focusing on the ripple effect that spread and inevitably connected lives. ![]() There was Claire, of course, who had to watch her friends die while suffering herself, and Finch, his own trauma rooted elsewhere yet no less significant. It’s not all sunshine and rainbows for the survivor, and Burke really touched on the tremendous pain that can shatter the mind and body in different ways. Finally I read my first Kealan Patrick Burke novel!
