I surprisingly really liked this. The dialogue was pretty natural & while I was pretty sure who the murderer was the story kept me second guessing myself.

This was a fun read. I really liked the format of the book and how it had the elements of the podcast, as well as going back and forth in the timeline. I wish I’d listened to the audiobook but the physical was still good to read.

I really did not guess at all that Emmett was the murderer so that was a good twist.
