Grace Sebold has been sentenced to prison for the murder of her boyfriend, Julian Crist, while on vacation in St. Lucia to celebrate the wedding of their friends, Charlotte and Daniel. Her brother, Marshall, their parents, and her best friend, Ellie Reiser were also there. Now, 10 years later, Grace writes to Sidney Ryan, a podcaster, asking her to tell her story and help get attention on her case, proclaiming her innocence. Sidney takes the offer, and begins producing a podcast series, bringing new evidence to light.
As the case proceeds, a former cop, Gus Morelli, reaches out to Sidney with more information.
This book is layered with many hints, but I was completely surprised by the final reveal.

I enjoyed the book. I was not captivated by the writing, I found it long, over the top and difficult to digest in parts, like reading a journal article. Plain English would have made this book amazing. I loved the twists and turns.
Loved everything about this book until the last 30ish pages. Not mad about the way things went down, it just felt sooooooo rushed. Would’ve loved to see everything filled out a bit more. Also felt like a bit of a stretch that the person who got stuck with it got stuck with it. Idk man it had me hooked.
