The Blood Road

The setting feels so visceral and real—was that based on personal experience or extensive research? I wonder what inspired the detailed depiction of the crime scenes.

The lines between right and wrong seem blurred here, which made me question what I would do in similar circumstances. How do others interpret the detective’s actions?

Switching viewpoints added layers to the mystery, but I’m curious whether that was a structural decision from the start or something that evolved during writing.
