I don’t like that Arnold is just… some guy.
I also didn’t love the doppelgänger aspect. I didn’t like it in the movie Lake Mungo (you can tell it inspired most of this book) and I really don’t think it works here the way he was intending. Going from a ghostly supernatural theme to every day true crime then adding in the doppelgänger randomly, it really didn’t mesh well for me.
All that being said, I did actually like it. I just wish it had been taken in a different direction.
