Nikki Chen asked Stuart Turton:

Hello, so I read the blurb of the book and I feel intrigued to read it. But I'm a freshman in highschool, so is this book appropriate for somebody my age?

Stuart Turton Hi there! The book is basically a mystery, but it does have some brutal violence. There are also allusions to sexual violence, but nothing shown or described. No swear words at all. That said the tone of the novel is very dark and some of the issues are disturbing. Hope that helps.

Laura Monaco asked Stuart Turton:

I enjoyed your book tremendously! Well done! I read the digital version, and wanted to buy a book version. On Amazon photos for the UK paperI back edition, I’m noticing a pull-out map placed on a table. Is this separate map available in the UK hardcover edition as well? None of the book descriptions mentions a separate map. The US version hardcover only has a map printed on the inside of the cover.
