Perfect for you if...
- You love serial killer thrillers with a mythological twist and don't mind spending time understanding the killer's obsession alongside the hunt.
- You want character-driven FBI procedurals where the team feels like actual people with flaws and backstories, not just archetypes themselves.
- You appreciate Pacific Northwest noir settings and don't need everything wrapped up neatly by the final page.
Maybe not for you if...
- You prefer fast-paced, plot-driven thrillers without heavy philosophical or religious underpinnings woven through the investigation.
- You want a protagonist at the height of their powers, not someone balancing personal turmoil and an impending retirement.
- You're after a standalone thriller rather than book one of a series with cliffhangers.
