The writing in this book is absolutely amazing. It really feels as if you’re there seeing the town and woods in person. Overall the story was really interesting and pulled me in.
My issue is the ending.

I was into this book for about 85% of it. Interesting mystery, interesting dynamic with the detectives. Then, the most obvious stupid thing happens, and I completely lose any investment in the main character. Honestly it felt like the author lost interest too. The present day mystery got suddenly wrapped up and the past mystery was hardly mentioned again.

Great mystery with twists and turns throughout. I didn't like the way the character sometimes threw in a "if I had known then what I know now" comment. There should have been more or none at all. The ending left me wanting more.
Intriguing book. Mysterious police investigation leads to a little twist. Very well written. I couldn't put it down. Looking forward to reading the next book in the series.
