A really good murder mystery (with some discussions of 'trial by media' in there too)

Really had me guessing the whole way through and I really enjoyed it!

only thing that makes it not 5 star is that I didn't really understand what Elliott's plan was, and I don't think it made sense to me honestly. I don't think a teacher like that would just decide to kill a student just to cover his own tracks like that. I understand the blackmail with the alibi but not the murder.
