Under This Red Rock

The portrayal felt raw and impactful, but I wonder what research or personal experiences influenced this depiction. Did the author aim to challenge or normalize these issues?

While the atmosphere was tense, some chapters felt a bit slow. Was this intentional to build suspense, or did it affect the overall tension for others?

Balancing suspense with sensitive topics can be tricky. I'm curious if this dual focus was planned from the start or evolved during writing.
