Absolutely nothing about this worked for me. The humour wasn't funny, the characters had no personality, the plot twist was ridiculous. A lot of it felt like it was written to be quoted on twitter.

The story had a lot of potential but it just didn’t quite get there.

How is it possible in this day and age to murder someone and not leave a trace without taking precautions. It just didn’t make sense to me

The mc was also quite annoying at times.
