Exiles

Harper's vivid descriptions really brought the landscape to life. I'm curious whether the setting was chosen for its atmosphere or if it was inspired by real locations.

Some characters seemed to hide more than they revealed, making it hard to tell who was trustworthy. Did others find their loyalties shifting throughout the story?

The pacing of the suspense felt very deliberate, with clues unfolding gradually. I wonder if this was planned from the start or evolved during writing.
