A big fan of the podcast, Morbid, it's how I heard about the book. The author is a great story teller with a special perspective into criminal and investigative behavior, it shows in her work.

Rating: 5 stars

Though short, this book kept me on the edge of my seat. The story was engaging and thoroughly entertaining, with twists that left me genuinely surprised. The premise may seem typical, but it had a unique twist that really intrigued me, and the writing was so well-crafted that I couldn’t put it down. I’m excited to dive into the next installment!

Amateur writing at its finest.
Presumptuous, pretentious, and a cheap rip off of Silence of the Lambs?
This one ain’t it.
