Plot was a bit meh. But the mystery was a great one. Couldn't pinpoint the one who did it at first. But I did have doubts. Although I doubted everyone at a certain point. Great though, kept me hooked until the end. Don't trust anyone

A gripping ead, impossible to guess the culprit until the very end. Absolutely engrossing, the characters stay with you in real life!
