This book was so amazing I finished it in one sitting. The characters are amazing, the writing is amazing, and the plot is well thought out and will keep you on your toes. This mystery keeps you engaged and thinking right up till the end.

I really enjoyed this book! I'm working my way through Agatha Christie's work so this was extra fun. I didn't figure out the who-dun-it until later in the book, which is always a plus. I appreciate the domestic abuse part of the book as well. It added another layer to the book as did Alice's disappearance mystery. I also loved most of the characters. I really hope that there's a sequel, as the ending seemed open to that!
