It's the first book in the trilogy and I really liked it. Even though I found out the killer before hand, still the book was great. I would highly recommend!

The book has a trigger warning that I normally avoid so it made me cry and not feel good, but apart from that, for me, it is perfect. 
I loved it. I loved the plot, I loved Pip, I loved Ravi, I loved it❤️❤️❤️
