Review: GRAVE GAMES by Skylar Finn
5 Resounding Stars!
What a totally enjoyable and riveting Mystery! I've enjoyed a few other books by author Skylar Finn, and found GRAVE GAMES all I expected. The premise is creatively imagined, and well-founded in both the plotting and in historical precedents. The reader's hook took my breath away; and the explication through the characters (and their evolution/devolution) of the effects of Traumq+a, of PTSD, of blanketing, inescapable, childhood abuse; as well as of criminal profiling and occasions on which law enforcement overlooks unexpected or unplanned possibilities due to tunnel vision [it never happened before, so it can't be happening now] I found superbly engrossing.
