Kill Season

The atmosphere of the town feels so authentic — I wonder if it was based on a real place or entirely imagined. How did the author craft this environment to enhance the mystery?

The characters often operate in morally grey areas, which made me question what I’d do in their situation. Was this tension intentional to reflect real-life complexity?

The pacing felt very deliberate, balancing action with introspection. I’m curious whether this was a conscious choice to build suspense or evolved naturally during writing.
