adventurous mysterious medium-paced

4.5

sorprendentemente me ha gustado más que el primer libro. al principio no me atrapaba pero luego me ha acabado gustando mucho. el final (larguísimo por cierto, como en el primer libro) está muy bien y la verdad es que me ha sorprendido. lo que no me acaba de gustar es la personalidad de marcus, no lo aguanto. no sé por qué pero en el primer libro y en este solo me caen bien las mujeres asesinadas, todos los demás son insoportables. :)

Joël Dicker has constructed a trio of characters that I love and that I hope we can get at least one more novel with the three of them. 

A mystery that has as many complex layers as amazing characters. This was just a page turner until the last second. Amazing use of different timelines just everything that you could want in a mystery novel.
