My rating: 4 of 5 stars
C. J. Tudor has written a unique story with this novel. It combines a mystery/thriller with the magical realism of a Stephen King or Haruki Murakami. At first, I wasn't quite certain that this would hold up to that level of combining genres but in the end, it worked. The story is engaging and although there are some clunky bits that seemed to not flow as well as the novel as a whole, in general, the plot and characters were engaging. I enjoyed the way the storylines ultimately came together at the end, while leaving some questions for the future.
All in all, this was more of a win than early reviews would have had me expecting. It was definitely worth a read if you like those mentioned genres.
