Prompt:

A song that matches the tone of the book so far is Two Steps from Hell - Moving Mountains. I believe this because there are many conflicts happening, and as you get further into the book the more intense it becomes. The music’s dramatic and powerful tone mirrors the escalating tension and uncertainty surrounding the characters, especially when Melanie goes missing and Justineau confronts Parks. Justineau’s emotional acuity helps her sense that something is wrong even before she confirms Melanie’s absence, showing her strong intuition and connection to the girl.
