Uma história á qual do inicio ao fim o leitor se cola, até descobrir que o assassino é a ultima opção que passou pela cabeça dele

Spoiler

uma velinha que supostamente sofre de demência

!! Este plot é de génio!! Pelo meio do percurso preparem-se para odiar personagens...

Holy shit. Alice Feeney being crowned “queen of killer twists” is highly accurate. This book was shockingly good, I was on edge the entire time I read it. I had an inkling of who I thought the murderer was and I was completely wrong, you don’t find out until the last 10 pages and before then, everyone is suspicious and everyone has motive. It was so twisted, incredibly addictive and hard to put down. I really don’t know how Alice does it but I refuse to question perfection.

The characters are not *unlikable*, I love the way she writes her cast with obvious flaws but doesn’t put those flaws on the forefront of the storyline. This is fast paced and easy to devour in one sitting. The ending was beautifully put together, and left me with a feeling of redemption. The people you’re meant to hate are insufferable and those you’re meant to sympathize with, break your heart. It’s a wonderful concoction of emotions and I want to read everything she writes forever.
