The book cover provides the imminent suspense of dark things to come. Was the deceased guy going to be cruel or kind? Helpful or spiteful? One will have to read the whole book to find out.
I once read this about what seems to happen after a funeral: “In a few minutes we would all step back into our lives, and the day-to-day would close over his [the deceased] absence as seamlessly as water over a rock”. Not so the case, the author has us in their grip.
