Excellent mystery! I couldn’t guess who did it. I found the two protagonists to be fascinating and I loved them. The story makes sense and there’s so much going on that gets wrapped up beautifully. Highly recommend it as a lighter mystery to try to solve.

It was entertaining and fun!!! There were some plot points that didn’t exactly fit into the storyline in my opinion and ended up leaving lots of loose ends. I want a sequel to tie the loose ends, but I don’t know how there would be a good sequel if there is not a new big mystery introduced.
