The book is not thrilling to the typical way or exciting. But it takes a slow and almost unexpectedly into the life of a small town, and before you know it you can not read differently on, because you have to know how it is with everything. Almost like a TV series like "The Wire" or "House of Cards". Especially I liked that the events from so many points of view are described and you get an insight into the inner life of all stakeholders and observed how everything develops gradually and more and more entangled. You can feel the escalation, but can not make out what is going to happen. A book worth reading. Writing from JK Rowling also because of the great nature.
