I put this on hold at the library in the hope of reading it for last month’s tag, but I just didn’t get round to it on time. I have read and previously enjoyed other books by this author, and this one was just as fast-paced as I have come to expect. The mystery gripped me from the outset, so much so that I read on into the early hours of the morning to find out how it would end! A rich, older couple are murdered at home after having had their three adult children and partners round for an Easter Dinner. It soon becomes clear that one of the children is the murderer, but which one, when they all had reason to? All of them have motive, and none of them have a concrete alibi for the time, with the hints and disclosures throughout the book pointing to different people as the killer at different times. I did predict who the killer was, but I had a lot of fun reading this and trying to figure it out through all the twists and turns.
