This story was a solid 4.5 stars for me. While I still find the first of Alex North's book my favorite this one was just as good and the mystery was solid. The story starts off with a crime and grabs the reader's attention immediately and it keeps going the whole time. There was a mix of solid thriller and horror and those are the best kinds of stories in my opinion. I loved the ending. I really didn't see it coming and it honestly was pretty shocking which is all I will say for fear of giving things away. The setting was a nice creepy dark feel to it with a neighborhood that has forgotten humanity which sets the perfect place for the story. If you are looking for a dark creepy summer read, this is the book for you.
