This book was fun, fast paced mystery that kept me guessing and had me hooked from the start! The concept is really interesting and well written and I definitely related a lot to the main character Pippa. Among the many twists and turns there were red herrings, blackmail, death threats and cleverly dropped hints throughout, all things a good mystery book should have! We jump straight into her investigation and meet some really great characters along the way who each offer their own small piece to the puzzle, which is written so well. There were definitely some emotional moments which had me tearing up, and the climax has a great twist with some really tense moments. All in all a brilliant read which I would definitely recommend to mystery lovers!
