Splinter the Silence

The story built tension nicely at first, but I found myself losing interest during the slower sections. Was that intentional to build suspense or just me?

Switching between characters added layers to the mystery, but I wonder if it was planned from the start or evolved during writing. Did it enhance or complicate the narrative?

The atmosphere felt so authentic and claustrophobic — I’m curious whether real places inspired this or if it was purely fictional. How does the setting influence the story’s tension?
