I just can't help reading books with such a setting, it is one of my favorite ones! I would have liked to care more for the characters, i think they were interesting enough but when they started to die i wasn't really shocked to see them go. The reason for the killer to be one felt rather weird, since the given clues
had literally nothing to say. I mean it was again a backstory which came out of nowhere to justify the act of killing Dana. Nothing we could have really peaced together with those clues! The ending had to offer a tiny twist though, twists are always a plus, even though this one was en easy guess
