With the crossover into Will’s past, I really hoped to see some familiar faces resurface. I was a little disappointed when this didn’t happen. Also, I knew very quickly who was responsible for the murder of Mercy McAlpine. However, the full reveal for the motive and other events that transpired in the story were quite a genuinely disturbing surprise. Overall, a solid work, but perhaps not destined to become a favorite.
