Before I even begin this review, I do want to say that checking trigger warnings for this book before picking it up would be a good idea. I didn't (Rookie mistake, I know) and was blindsided by something quite triggering so I wanted to give anyone who wants to pick this up a word for advice!

To sum this up in two words: Gory Madness.

Like so much gore.

I am not a stranger to Urban Exploring and I spent a time doing Urban Exploring myself or watching videos on YouTube of others doing it growing up. I have always heard about how dangerous it can be and I think this book showed the absolute worst-case scenario of that danger occurring.

This would make a fantastic horror movie and I was on the edge of my seat for the entirety of the book.

The use of slurs did take me by surprise, especially when I felt like it was unnecessary and could have been left out altogether.

Overall, this was a thrilling, horrifying read.

Thank you to NetGalley and Jens Boele for providing me with this ARC. I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.
