I was way off on all of predictions of “who done it?” and I love that. (Predictions kept changing throughout the whole book). Lots of twists and turns and chapters that end on cliff hangers. Easy to follow and a quick read that left me shocked a few times!
The author is a pretty special human being as well. 💕
I had read this years ago when I met Wesley in college, and it really holds up! I had almost forgotten, but it has a well-crafted story that does a good job of describing the characters and weaving everything in. Real suspense is built as you try to figure out the mystery, and I enjoyed how it was paced! Good thriller to read, and I'm glad I held onto my copy for a spooky-seasom reread.
Definitely a good book - quick to follow and easy to read. Was quite short for me and wasn’t a book I would say you HAVE to read! But if you do fancy a short, easy to read thriller/mystery, you will definitely like this! 😄
