About this listen
This isn’t a romance. This isn’t happily-ever-after. This is a mystery. And, like me, it’s pretty messed up.
Detective Gray Dulac is in freefall: a disfiguring injury; a crumbling relationship; a slowly imploding career. But there’s a kind of clarity to it all. A detachment. A way of being in the world when you can’t screw things up any more than you already have.
When he stumbles across a wounded young man outside a party, though, Gray is struck by the similarities between their injuries, and he discovers he might not be as detached as he thought. The case falls under the jurisdiction of the sheriff’s office, but Gray can’t seem to leave it alone, and he continues to investigate even after being told to stop.
The only problem is that everyone, including the victim, is lying to him. And when the young man turns up dead, Gray finds himself at the top of the list of suspects and racing to find the real killer—and the truth. Because better than anyone, Gray knows that truth is a broken mirror.
And the edges are sharp enough to cut.

The story starts with a bang (literally), and I was drawn in immediately. Dulac is a mess, barely holding on, while trying to show the world he is coping. This was an interesting character study into a messy, damaged man, and I loved it. I'd love to read more of Dulac's story for sure.

"...and for his suggestion of a part two--which I agree, Dulac needs". So we're gonna hope that one day we get to see Dulac ride off into the sunset.
Now for this one, again SO dark. You might be thinking, yeah, I've read the rest of the Hazardverse, I get dark. And yeah, okay, this is darker. Mind triggers from chapter 1. But it really fits where Dulac is and honestly, has probably been for much longer than everyone realized. I didn't always like Dulac during the H&S arc, so it didn't surprise me that I both loved him and loathed him at times here (and love was probably mostly because I could see who he was meant to be shining through). This is watching someone spiral out in real time and it was raw, and painful, and weirdly cathartic to go through with Dulac. I probably have too much investment in these fictional characters, honestly.
The mystery is good, but the solving of it is messy because Dulac is so so so messy in this one. We get a look into his past though and your heart is going to break for him multiple times throughout this one. I'm also now not sure I like Darnell, so do with that what you will (but I think this was a good step towards humanizing him a little more and still think he could be end game). Definitely read this one if you're in the headspace to do so. I didn't really like Dulac in it, and yet, it's a 5 star read because I didn't need to like him for it to be absolutely amazing.
Be ready for Greg to break your heart!
