4.0

This book starts slow but gradually pulls you into not one but two mysterious crimes. I truly enjoyed getting to know each character a little bit more with each chapter, as the author gives us small insights into their morals and motives. Even if you think you’ve solved the mystery, keep reading and you may just be surprised. This book leaves you wondering if you can ever truly know a person … including maybe even yourself.
