I would not call this book a standalone. It does deal with its own mystery that is solved by the end of the book but there are many things left unfinished and it ends on a cliffhanger.
There are ten new characters that are well developed and all have unique personalities and intricate relationships. This book heavily focuses on David and Stevie's relationship which almost takes precedence over the mystery over the course of the story and I wish that there was more plot that involved Vi, Jennell, and Nate.
The plot felt very well planned and the atmosphere was wonderful. It truly felt like you were inside Stevie's head.
Would recommend if you have read the first three books of Truly Devious.
