A story about a man who just lost his wife from a mall shooting, and the wild journey that follows when he decides to investigate an old receipt he finds in her things.
This was definitely a ride. The book takes you on ups and downs and keeps you guessing until the end. I understand needing prose to set the atmosphere, especially with the paranormal-adjacent happenings (Is it her? Is he just crazy?), but I felt it could have been cut down a bit. All in all a fun thriller!
