Giving this one another shot. Looks like another murder mystery with a gritty curmudgeon of a private investigator stumbling on a body. So far so 👍

The good: The writing and editing are strong. Noir vibes in a coastal Oregon town. Lots of potential in the characters of Gage and Zoe. The mystery is compelling.
The not super great: Female characters are not fully formed. Some sexist & fat-shaming statements. Carmen is just plain lame. (I don't understand her immediate hotness for Gage. He seems very...not hot to me.) Also some blech gay panic humor.
