I received this book in a Halloween mystery bag from the library and I’m glad I did. While the style is right my alley it hasn’t been on my radar. It’s told in alternating view points of the victim and the journalist investigating her story. I feel like there were still some unanswered questions at the end, but overall it was a very engaging story and well written. I look forward to reading more by this author. Be aware there are some triggers involving SA.

Liked the plot, but the themes and characters were under developed. I wish this book was written by a woman, the more sensitive topics felt oversimplified
