I wasn’t sure exactly what to expect from this book, to be frank. The description was enough to pique my interest, and enough to know this was going to be a bit dark, but I didn’t expect to become so immersed in the Lost Falls world.
The characters showed sufficient growth and depth for a first book in a series for me; the reveal of Ozzy’s motivations driving him to help, even when the job wasn’t promising to be financially rewarding was well done. Not too much held back, but not an infodump either. The relationships between Ozzy and the supporting characters (even “Lawrence”!) were touching and realistic.
Gary Bennet’s smooth narration was perfect. He did an excellent job and I was able to understand who was speaking when there was dialogue and what was internal. I’ll certainly be likely to listen to more works by both gentlemen.
I received a copy of this audiobook from the author and am leaving this review voluntarily.
