I am only about 30 pages in but already it's dark. Like I was expecting it to be - dark is right there in the dang title and I got trigger warnings from a friend before starting it and know at least a little about the overall direction the plot will go - but like. Damn. Literally on page 2 the mc is having a PTSD nightmare about waterboarding a woman whose face he can't see. I'm less than 30 pages in and their first case is the ritualistic murder of a family of 6.

(It's a police procedural about a mc who worked undercover in a drug cartel for a number of years I haven't been able to pin down yet??? probably 6???? and his police unit. ML is a forensic artist, who hasn't technically been introduced yet (they've met but not by name and not explicitly. at least, I'm assuming that's who he met).)
