Ugh if it wasn’t for the fact I finished this book in pretty much two sittings, I wouldn’t have finished it.
Molly’s character was interesting to start with - very much implied autistic in the way she speaks and repeats herself, I was interested to see how her character played out. However I ended up finding everything very cheesy and questioning her decisions. The main one beingwhy on earth did she protect Mrs Black? She had no allegiance to her whatsoever and could have immediately said her name to the police and the book could have ended a hell of a lot earlier lol
Also the grandmother?Making your heavily implied autistic granddaughter end your life? Such a selfish and unfounded choice there.
Not sure I’ll continue the series.
