Hugely disappointed by the twist at the end!

Would have loved it if Harry and Grace had met after their different murders, then met Lara and shared the money but then that wouldn’t have worked with Harry’s entitlement I guess

. I enjoyed Grace’s character, the planning of the different murders (although I feel that one of the murders definitely wasn’t necessary), her humour and the social commentary and I would have put 4.5 if it weren’t for that ending!

I'm afraid it just didn't hook me. I can see the appeal but it simply isn't my type of book.
