A Mask of Flies by Matthew Lyons
This book was hella WEIRD!!!
Someone sold them out. The heist went terribly wrong and Anne barely escapes with Jessup bleeding so badly that the only place she can stop is the place where she lost her mother. He doesn't survive his gunshot but apparently doesn't know how to stay dead either...
The supernatural themes in this one were really exciting!! Anne is a criminal and remembers virtually nothing from her childhood. She remembers what happened to her mother but no one believed her. She was on the verge of being annoying but she always starts to redeem herself so it was hard to hate her but she was such a hot head. Quick to anger and that really was irritating.
She ends up going back to the cabin where her mother was killed and in doing so lets something loose. She can't outrun it and on her journeys she learns about why she doesn't remember anything from her childhood. It's eerie and dark and really entertaining.
For the most part it was well paced but there was a lot I person think should have been cut out and then it would have been one hell of a book.
