Undertaking Irene

The town feels so vivid and charming—I'm curious whether the author drew from personal experience or created it entirely from imagination.

Her lighthearted attitude made the story so enjoyable, but I wondered if that was a deliberate choice to balance the darker elements of the plot.

The blend of laughs and suspense kept me hooked, and I’d love to hear whether the tone evolved during writing or was planned from the beginning.
