It kept me interested from beginning to end, the pacing was actually perfect and surprised me a few times when it jumped unexpectedly. I got attached to the characters really quickly, the atmosphere was amazing. I loved the mystery and the clues. Knowing the ending, I could pay attention to the clues we get, and I think it's done brilliantly, giving you all you need but not making it too obvious.
This would actually have been a 5 star, but the use of some slurs, especially the n-word, put me off a lot.
