I wasn’t a fan of this book. I had high hopes for it but I thought it dragged through the first 3/4 of the book and then all of a sudden, with very little lead-up, the mystery was solved and everything was good as could be.

The characters weren’t very likeable either, the only one I was rooting for was Cooper. Bronwyn was precocious, Nate was a predictable, and Addy’s character arc felt one-dimensional and fell flat.
