This was a fun mystery thriller. Just a really great story, told well. With family drama and secrets, the mysterious kidnapping, and a fewpther mysteries thrown in for fun, this could have easily been too much in a single book. It absolutely was not. Yes, some mysteries are still unsolved, but they are a more overarching storyline for this series. Without them, I'd still want to read more. Sunshine Vicram is snarky, sassy and unafraid to do everything she needs to, with a soft empathetic side. This was just such a fun read that I'm recommending it to my dad for his next read. A great 5 fun star book. But please look into the trigger warnings if there is anything that you find hard to handle. I do feel that listing them directly here would spoil some of the mystery of the book. None of the major trigger warnings are explicit, but they are mentioned and discussed.
