Blake Karrington es un narrador que sumerge a sus lectores en momentos llenos de acción. Sus narrativas a menudo se desarrollan en entornos urbanos del sur, a menudo pasados por alto, revelando la cruda realidad de lugares como Charlotte, NC. A través de su perspectiva, personajes complejos, incluso asesinos y ladrones, se vuelven creíbles mientras teje historias de fondo que humanizan y ofrecen razones convincentes para sus elecciones. Los lectores experimentan una montaña rusa emocional, mostrando empatía por personajes defectuosos que toman consistentemente las decisiones equivocadas en momentos cruciales, impulsando la historia. Dentro de estas narrativas, la moralidad está tan difusa que animar a los antagonistas a evadir la justicia puede resultar convincente, incluso cuando contradice lo que es correcto.
