A bit too ‘perfect utopia’ driven for me but still had enough plot to keep me interested.

A post-apocalyptic murder mystery to save the world.
🏝️
A fog swept the earth, killing everyone except for 122 villagers and three scientists who now live in harmony on a remote island, protected by the fog. The utopia doesn’t last for long because one of the scientists is murdered, but before that everyone’s memory was wiped by the security system. Now they have 107 hours to solve the murder before the fog will take over the island, ending humanity forever.

I’ve been putting off reading this one because I loved 7 1/2 Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle that I worried it wouldn’t live up to that one. Unfortunately I was right. I didn’t love this the same way I loved his debut. I do love a good #dystopian #thriller but the pacing was off for a murder mystery. It was slow going for way too long before it began to pick up. It has conflicting reviews on GR too so maybe this one just was a miss, but I plan on reading Turton again.
CW: murder, death, violence, suicide, grief, blood, death of a parent, gore, pandemic, medical content, slavery, confinement, classism, animal death, fire, emotional abuse, racism, forced institutionalization, abandonment, animal cruelty

Such a thrill ride and keeps you hooked. The mystery is a tangle of webs, really well written. Keeps you guessing at every turn.
