The blurb calls this a eco-thriller, but that's not quite it. It's speculative fiction, a slower paced philosophical novella. It's good, but go in expecting that. It's also detailed about the poaching industry, especially what's left of the animals, so big content warning if that makes you uncomfortable. But the way the subject is approached is really complex, almost too complex for such a short book.
