This would have been a near 5 star for me but the ending?! wtf???? zero closure!

otherwise an excellent read, I devoured this in 3 days. some of the red herrings are obvious in the writing but that I can forgive. The ending I cannot.

Spoiler

ending  felt like too many twists that didn’t all add up or feel complete. Ending was too graphic for me. No loveable characters

This is giving Pretty Little Liars in the sense that a lot of things are going on that came out of nowhere and the ending is just... not it

I enjoyed the book and was surprised by the ending. Though I would have liked a more definitive ending, I liked being surprised by who the murderer was. I do wonder though

Spoiler

if Officer Wallace was a red herring or why she was in the book but not mentioned with the serial child murderer. Was it because of the time gap?

Overall it was a twisty thriller that I enjoyed, with just that one plot hole.

Started a little confusing due to the switching between characters and timelines each chapter, and also ended pretty abruptly. Still a great murder mystery with lots of twists and turns.
