Wow! Just wow! The twist in the second half of the novel really drew me. It was so compelling to see how Pip got away with her own murder. I was kind of disappointed to see we never truly got the payoff of Max Hastings's case, but the ending makes it clear that they had won, even if it was implied. Ravi messaged Pip, meaning that she no longer had to be isolated from him, meaning Max Hastings was finally put away. Thank god! I loved this series so much! The whole full-circle nature of the mysteries connecting all three books together was really well done. This was a gripping finale and I loved every moment.
