Night Shoot

Just not my cup of tea - when I pick up a spooky house book, I'm looking for [b:The Haunting of Hill House 89717 The Haunting of Hill House Shirley Jackson https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1327871336l/89717.SY75.jpg 3627] or [b:The Silent Companions 35458733 The Silent Companions Laura Purcell https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1500725504l/35458733.SY75.jpg 55746774], and this turns out much more like Texas Chainsaw Massacre. Even before the strict horror starts, the plot turns on casual sexual degradation in a way I didn't care for. Then the gore starts. This book sets out to be creepy, nasty, sexually violent, and full of detailed butchery, and it succeeds. I only came for the “creepy” part, so this just didn't work well for me.
