Payment in Blood

The setting feels so authentic and atmospheric, making me wonder if there's a personal connection or a particular place that sparked the story.

I found myself wanting more action, but I also appreciated how the slower moments added depth. Curious if others felt the same or if it was a deliberate choice.

The characters' tough choices made me question what justice really means. Would love to hear others' thoughts on whether the book leans more towards cynicism or hope.
