WHO IS THE FIENDISH FELINE!!!??! This is one of the best books I have read. At first, I thought the criminal was Richard, but then slowly I lost interest in Richard, and begun thinking who it actually was. I had no clue whatsoever about who it was. Then, FLORENCE! I honestly felt sad for Veronica, but I had no idea she was the ‘person’. Also, I don’t really understand the bit about Florence having fake tears at the end of this novel. I can’t believe that she gave Winnie/Winston to Skye!!!! What?! Overall, I loved this book!
