Kristopher Triana constantly proves himself to be one of the best authors working in the horror space, and it's because he really understands how to write something that isn't remotely horror. A lot of times it seems like he desperately wants to get out of the extreme horror space, because all of his best work is just more violent crime dramas.
Shepherd of the Black Sheep works really well because of how much time we spend with Tom. The novel takes a lot of inspiration from 90s crime thrillers but puts us in the shoes of a victim instead of a cop. Tom falling down the rabbit hole feels so real because Triana cares about the characters he writes.
I don't have much to say. This was an incredibly gripping novel. I highly recommend this.
