Good book, but it wasn’t as suspenseful as I would have liked and seemed to end rather ubruptly.

I liked the way the crimes were revealed. it was never direct, always under another layer or two. I was glued to the pages till near the end. At the end it seemed like a cartoonish wrap up, everything fell into place too perfectly. I was also so frustrated with the Rachel and Hannah characters, One took so many chances one was just ridiculous with the letters and the distancing. It felt like such a let down after all the drama and waiting.
I'm not sure if I'd read more from this author her style may just not be for me

Loved the podcast element! It was such a difficult book to read at times but it was one of those books that you have to read in one sitting!

I loved the nightingale symbolism but this was a little too graphic for me
