"We all live in cages. Only those of us who are lucky get to choose which one."
After watching a murderer flee the crime scene, Catrin helps the investigator assigned to the case, Simon. They soon find themselves tracking a serial killer. Simon knows far too much about the mind of a killer and Catrin keeps her supernatural sight abilities secret. How long can secrets last when there's a killer running around?
BLOOD AND MOONLIGHT is a YA fantasy mystery-thriller that doesn't read like a typical angsty YA book. I quickly became engrossed in Catrin's world, turning pages to see if I could solve the mystery of who the murderer was. I was guessing up to the end. I enjoyed the world building. The idea of Catrin's supernatural ability to have increased sight being granted by the moon was interesting and I liked how it was executed within plot. There are some deeper topics to think about when reading -- how do we treat people with mental illness? How do we treat sex workers? Our own actions towards these populations as well as society as a whole are called into question. I always enjoy when a book is thought provoking.
BLOOD AND MOONLIGHT was an enjoyable read that I'd recommend to fantasy mystery-thriller fans.
