This is a literary masterpiece of the murder mystery genre. I was keeping notes and was certain I knew what was going on… I was proven wrong… and then wrong again… only to find out I was right on my initial hunch for the wrong reasons! I could not put this down, and truly cannot recommend this enough for anyone remotely interested in a whodunnit where every little detail cannot go unforgotten.

I enjoyed this book! I did guess the murderer early in the book but I couldn't have predicted the twist. A short and enjoyed read although a tad slow in places.
