About
If you enjoy dark, suspenseful crime stories about disappearance and survival, this may work for you, especially if you liked the tense mood of Balloon or Bastards; Not for you if you want light themes or clear-cut answers.
Pros: tense manhunt premise; high-stakes danger; mystery-driven momentum | Cons: grim subject matter; limited warmth; sparse character detail
