Whatever you think happened to Alaska Sanders, you’re wrong! Such a fun, twisty crime novel. I listened to the audiobook with my partner and we had so much fun pausing and discussing our theories. Would highly recommend!

Como todo lo leído suyo hasta ahora no te deja parar quieres llegar al final si o sí.
El sargento y Marcus, la pareja ideal.
La verdad es que bastante adictivo, pero sentí pena al final por las víctimas..

Frase favorita: “ al perder a Helen, perdí mi propio manual de instrucciones”.

Conecté mucho con la frase, porque también tengo alguien que es mi “manual de instrucciones.”

Muyyy divertido y it keeps you in edge. Al principio dije lol xq tengo que saber esto pero it all makes sense. Este el segundo libro que sigue otro pero no me ha hecho falta leerme el primero para entender el segundo que me gusta bastante

I'm a huge fan of the previous 'Marcus Goldman' novels and have read them several times, and whilst this was a truly excellent novel I felt it was lacking in the personal angle that the other two have. Familiar characters do appear, but the crime isn't as closely connected to them so the stakes weren't as high and I didn't find myself getting as emotionally involved. Nevertheless this is a proper crime novel, with small town secrets, hidden mysteries and red herrings galore. It kept me guessing until the very end and had me reading past my bedtime. A brilliant author that I will continue to keep on my 'must buy immediately' list.
