White Bird in a Blizzard

The story's twists kept me guessing, but I wonder if the choice to tell it through shifting perspectives was planned from the start or developed during writing.

The conclusion left some questions open, which made me think about how much is left to interpretation. Was this an intentional choice by the author?

The contrast between the seemingly normal environment and the dark secrets was striking. I’m curious how much of the setting was inspired by real places.
