Oooh i do love a good murder. This was such an easy book due to the small, fast-paced ‘chapters’. Plus the whole premise and setting was intriguing (love a good rich people country murder) and I like with Foley’s books you don’t find out the victim until right at the end (although admittedly this one is kinda obvious). Despite know who the murderer was, heheeheh I guessed with at least 100 pages to go heheh,  the writing and finale still was rather intense, with some parts I didn’t see coming. Everything was neatly wrapped up in a blood-tinted ribbon, I had no questions left unanswered. 

I will say though, the sheer amount of characters was a bit much. Some had no relevance at all expect to be nice?? Idk. I also didn’t like the glasses stereotype going on. GRRR. 

Apart from that, a nice easy read.
