She’d never have done so silly a thing in Yhalen’s sight. Of some silly thing she’d done, after Yhalen had reluctantly declined her offers of body and self-something that Yherji had seen and Yhalen had not. What had they been talking about? Phralen, perhaps and how very high she’d gotten on blackfern berries at last year’s festival of rites. He could imagine Yherji’s laughter, Yherji’s mocking smile, his crooked nose and his humor in the face of the most dire situation. Yherji’s last cry as the mallet crashed through bramble to crush the back of his skull with no more effort than a man might make to squash a beetle under his foot, echoed in Yhalen’s ears. Yhalen fled with Yherji’s blood on his skin and the flashing image of Yherji’s death-shocked face dancing behind his eyes.

When I say there was no excitement until the end, even then the ending was not overly exciting. Adam would simply be going about his life, have an instant where he felt the small hand or felt a strange sensation, it would go away and life would resume. There were some beautiful locations in the book and some vivid descriptions and some eerie moments (that admittedly made me creeped out enough that I struggled to fall asleep), however the plot was very run of the mill and there was no major excitement until the end.
