A fun read, this murder mystery had me thinking I’d solved the next step only to be surprised over and over again. Keeping track of the timelines, characters, motives, etc. was tough (but in a good way—it’s what kept me guessing in attempts to keep everyone straight!). The pace picks up abruptly in the latter half of the book.
