I think Peter Swanson is such a good writer! I really enjoyed this book, but thought the ending was a little weird.

After reading this book,I found out that it was the third book in a series. And the other two in the series have been on my TBR for a long time now. 🤦🏼‍♀️ 
Overall, a good murder mystery. Many different points of view which I normally don't prefer, but this one didn't bother me as much. I'll probably get to the first 2 in the series sometime soon because they've been on my radar for a while and now they've been bumped up due to me accidentally reading this book first.
