Echoes of Darkness

The atmospheric town feels so vivid and layered — I wonder if it was based on a real place or entirely fictional. How did the author bring it to life?

Their struggles with trust and trauma felt very authentic, but also made me uneasy at times. How did the author balance vulnerability with suspense?

The pacing of revelations kept me hooked, but I’m curious if that was mapped out from the start or if it evolved during writing.
