I was really enjoying it until the end. The main character was "not like other girls" and constantly brought it up. The cops were also pointless throughout the book. However, I liked the Strangers on a Train plot. The fact the main character was bi, also seemed like it was forced and not just a character trait.
Why was it incest? It would have been 4 stars if it was just two siblings. Technically they're not related, but they grew up together.
