Once I hit chapter 11 I could not put this down.

The twists of truth revealed by the crime podcasts, in between Lucy’s story, kept me invested. I loved the dual POV, it was different than typical murder mysteries I’ve read so far.

I thought I KNEW who the murderer was and, even though I was wrong, I was pleasantly surprised at the very end.

• Dual POV -  Murder suspect & Crime podcaster
• Very mild spice (FTB scenes)
• TW: domestic abuse
• Amnesia trope
• Cold case

Read on audiobook & would highly recommend listening. Would recommend to anyone who enjoys the genre.

Excellent on audio. Great pacing. Very flawed characters. I really enjoyed this. It would have been a five for me if the ending had been tweaked slightly. Check trigger warnings. There's some heavy subject matter in this book.
