The book was ok. I did enjoy the shifting perspectives of the two characters and it was an interesting read. If you pay attention to certain details you can easily find out the main twist though I was surprised at the other twist.

A well-written mystery with compelling characters. While the twist was easily guessed halfway through the book, the characterisation and pacing was still enough to keep me engaged until the end.
